Expert Tips

Legumes are loaded with plenty of fiber--the soluble kind. Start slowly so you have time to get used to added fiber in the diet!

This recipe was very delicious. I would recommend using less Fiber One Cereal though otherwise it tastes mostly of that.

When I tried this I guess I expected it to taste different. It was not very spicy. All I could taste was fiber one cereal. That's what I thought, but my very picky boyfriend ate the whole thing.

I really enjoyed this meatless burger. You can't even tell that there is cereal and oatmeal in the burger. I substituted cucumbers for tomatoes and added nonfat plain yogurt and tasted great! Definately would make this again.
