Lunch today included lots of pretty colors.
I topped a big bowl of spring mix with celery, carrots, two MorningStar Farms spicy black bean burgers and pomegranate dressing. I absolutely love using black bean burgers as a salad topper. They add so much flavor and the punch of protein helps fill me up!
The dressing I used on my salad was Marzetti’s simply dressed pomegranate vinaigrette that I bought on sale at Publix on Sunday.
I love this stuff and always stock up whenever I see a deal!
If you scrunched your nose up at the thought of black bean burgers and pomegranate salad dressing, I don’t blame you. It sounds like a totally bizarre combination, but oddly enough, it worked. I was craving black bean burgers but wanted a little sweetness in my salad, so I decided to combine the two and was pleasantly surprised.

Black Bean burgers are my favorite – won’t mention the competitor but that brand NEVER agrees with me! Love your blog 🙂
Black Bean Morning Star burgers are my favorite. I use them as burgers, in salads, by themselves. Im not a big red meat type of girl so these fit perfectly with my healthy eating habits. I also love their meatballs. So tasty and full of flavor.
I love ’em all! The breakfast sausage links and meal starter burger crumbles have pretty much convinced my meat loving husband to go vegetarian! (Fun tip- burger crumbles, taco seasoning, a little olive oil, diced onion and red peppers makes for an awesome taco filing!)
I have never tried any of their products, I would love to trt the Black Bean Burgers!
