Vegan Chipotle Black Bean Burger

June 15, 2019June 15, 2019
Vegan Chipotle Black Bean Burger

A few years ago, if you had asked me to try a vegan black bean burger I would have probably given you a major side eye. I enjoyed black beans, but I wasn’t sure if I liked them enough to consider them as a possible meat substitute. But, after going vegan, I was on the search for some new meals to try and the vegan black bean burgers became an option.

  • New recipe ✨ Vegan Chipotle Black Bean Burger. Since going vegan, I’ve been trying to be really intentional about enjoying my meals + debunking the myth that plant-based eating is expensive. This burger is made with 100% whole, plant-based ingredients, is gluten-free, delicious & very affordable to make. I also wouldn’t be Nigerian if I didn’t use peppers to make the patties, lol. So there are chipotle peppers in this! The recipe is on my blog 😋
  • Can you believe I ever thought there was something wrong with being a brown girl? I absolutely love my skin. 💛
  • I ran into a Nigerian accountant at a Starbucks during undergrad. He struck a conversation with me and was in disbelief that I didn’t want to pursue a career in healthcare, business, law or engineering. ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ Socialization is powerful. Unfortunately, there’s an idea within the African community that you can only be successful in a STEM or business-related field. It’s a very narrow and toxic way of thinking. I’ve always been passionate about education. So, I chose to use my gifts by earning an M.Ed. I chose not to limit myself. I chose to be happy. ⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ For anyone who feels discouraged about pursuing a goal, this message is for you. Stop worrying about what others think or disappointing them. Are you chasing God’s dream for you or the dream provided by your family? Those who truly love you will always be rooting for you, and that includes The One who has placed the dream inside of your heart.
  • I am overwhelmed with joy. Today I received my Master of Education in School Counseling from my alma mater, Georgia State University. Praise the Lord! And in typical Nigerian fashion, I had a dress made for this milestone. Next up, Ed.S.! 💛👩🏾‍🎓🇳🇬
  • Alexa, play “Beautiful Surprise” by India Arie 🤧💛
  • Learning to be more carefree. ✨ I realize that I have been wearing my hair down a lot lately and feeling good about it. This is a huge milestone for me. I only wore it down a handful of times last year, still feeling insecure about the length and my haircut. But that’s how confidence is built - by doing things that make us uncomfortable. 🌷
