Black Bean Brownies

This is short and sweet. I meant to post this simple recipe earlier in the fall, when I first heard about it, but decided to take the opportunity to share it now....

This recipe was recommended by one of my personal trainers. He said these brownies are healthy for you and taste better, on average, than those with high fat and added cholesterol. My colleages at work and I tried them, and agree, they are a good replacement. Not bad at all! And if you ever crave a "chocolatey" treat, you might consider this healthy alternative?

Use a box of brownie mix and stir in one can of black beans (pour in everything from the can, including the water). The black beans and water actually replace everything that was to have been added to the brownie mix - such as eggs, water, etc. Follow the directions for baking on the package. And VOILA, simple Black Bean Brownies that are full of fiber and much healthier than traditional brownies.
