    It never hurts anyone to eat healthy if given the opportunity. I like this black bean burger recipe. Would like to know where to get or what is Mary's Secret Spice (MSS)?

    This may be an odd post to some, but I am one of those fur baby moms that cooks fresh meals for them. This recipe may be just what I am looking for to help stretch out their meals. I plan to make these soon and if the humans in the home love them perhaps the fur babies will at least like them.
