Black Bean Patties

These are quick to make and great for using up leftover rice, quinoa, barley, or other grains. And the cumin really adds the perfect touch of flavor (although I do add some salt). I make these as an accompaniment to squash soup or other cream-based soup...perfect for harvest time. I really enjoy simple food, and these are perfect. My kids enjoy them too...they say they look like chocolate chip cookies and like them dipped in ketchup.
