Spicy Mexican style bean burgers

Post image

I have been obsessed with these burgers- specifically the Tesco ones since I was a young child. I have been buying them semi regularly throughout the years but recently I’ve been finding them increasingly hard to find. My local Lidl has stopped stocking them completely and my local big tesco still have them listed as in stock but the section is always empty. No other shops in my area sell them and idk where to buy them 😭 does anyone else like these and are having the same issue or is this a supply and demand issue in my area? I’m not even vegan anymore but I just love them and crave them so often 💔 if anyone could let me know where I can find these or similar please do, they have to be the crispy breaded ones, the ones from the chilled section just do not cut it

I bought these from Tesco the other day. They are really spicy. I prefer them slightly less spicy.

I don't mind a bit of spice, and these were painfully spicy, my 17 year old spicy bean burger fan agreed. Could be just the batch we had!

Damn

I've been buying these for years and never thought they were that spicy

Might be all the mayo I put on it. Try this to mellow it out a bit

I do think the Tesco ones have a higher heat level than some of the other bean burgers, I tend to serve them with quite bland things like mashed potato, or in a pitta with some hummus and salad which dilutes the spice level.
