Black Bean Croquettes with Fresh Tasty Salsa

Excellent, this is one of best black beans recipes, we baked these Croquettes about 40 minutes, much longer than 20 minutes, and the croquettes turned out wonderful, breadcrumbs on the surface were golden and nice, and they tasted really good, if you want to try a meatless recipe, this is the one. Enjoy!
