Substitutions
Black Beans - Substitute with pumpkin puree or avocado.
These Vegan Brownies are definitely a game-changer! You can also try a fruit salad with a variety of fresh ones laid out on a platter.
It is not distinct at all. I can not notice a grainy or texture taste of the black beans and neither can my daughters or husband.
I recommend no more than 3 days because of the black beans. In my experience, any beans in the fridge after 3 days seem to get a smell to them which really bothers my nostrils.
Not at all!
