Black Eyed Pea Burger

I ate a whole bunch of black eyed peas when I was growing up and surprisingly still love them today, as much, or maybe even more than I did when I was a child! If you love a good veggie burger, then these burgers should be right up your alley as they have just the right amount of flavor, density and moisture. You can pair it with some GoAvo or some sliced tomatoes and onions, or simply go without any extras, which is my favorite way to devour them. Yummmmm……….
