{15 Minute} Spicy Black Bean Burgers with Blue Cheese Coleslaw

Spicy black bean burgers are paired with a crunchy blue cheese coleslaw and topped with creamy avocado to make a killer burger.  Coming together in under 15 minutes, you will have a healthy dinner in no time!

I feel like summer just started, yet all I hear is how everyone is ranting about fall coming around the bend. I still have to savor BBQ with friends, Saturday afternoons at the ballpark with a bag of salty peanuts and ice cream to cool off with on a humid, KC day.

Even though I love fall (hello, my birthday!), I am not ready to break up with summer quite yet. We are just getting to the flirting stage!

Simple and stress free dinners are highly popular around our house when evening walks, bike rides or time spent with family and friends are also on the agenda.  When nights such as those come around, MorningStar Farms Spicy Black Bean Burgers are a great stand in to satisfy our cravings for a meaty and juicy burger!  Crisp corn kernels you can see provide a sweetness along with the heat of the burgers.

I have been in love with the MorningStar Farms Black Bean Burgers for a few years but lately I am loving all the options they offer if you are looking for a meatless meal! With over 30 types of burgers, sausages, pizzas and much more, there is something to please everyone!   

So back to the burgers….to cool things off, a simple coleslaw of greek yogurt, cream cheese and blue cheese is whipped together and slathered on to give your taste buds a run for their money.

I may or may not have been eating this coleslaw all on its on. You will never know.

It’s the stinky blue cheese I can’t say no to. With a hint of honey added, the coleslaw is borderline addicting…

And no summer meal is complete without avocado. I am eating avocado’s like they are going out of style; from with my eggs in the morning, smashed on toast with a sprinkle of feta, to on their own with a healthy dose of seasoned salt for the ideal afternoon snack. The creaminess of the avocado adds earthiness to the burger, along with freshness.

Oh not to mention, these burgers come together in a jiffy.  With a quick toast on the buns, add some heat to the black bean burgers, and a quick twist of your wrist to finish up the coleslaw, you will have a killer burger in no time.  Leaving you enough time to savor the last few days of summer!
