Beans on keto? Yes, you can! Most beans are off-limits to ketogenic dieters due to their high carb count. However, black soybeans are perfect as there is only 1 gram of net carbs per 1/2-cup serving. The trick to keeping these burgers together without using egg (as is traditional) is to squeeze all the water out of thawed frozen spinach and break it apart to fully incorporate it with the beans.
SERVING SUGGESTION: Top each burger with fresh salsa, a tomato slice, and some shredded lettuce.
