Once again I failed to get a picture but it turned out so delicious that I have to share anyway. The original recipe calls for cooking in a crockpot but I just put them in the oven. You can see the original (slightly different) recipe here. Ingredients: 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed 1…
Memory Lane Monday…Retro Commercials
Two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun. Yes, my brain is chock-full of important stuff like that.

True friendship…
