Review of Pistolero - Mexican Style Bean Patties - Meraki by sammartingano

Meraki offers a range of Plant Based patties (burgers)...with various flavour options.

Pistolero is the Mexican version - this is one of my favourites in the range, good flavour with a nice Mexican flair thanks to the addition of jalapeños, crushed chilies 🌶 and peri-peri. Not overly spicy at all for those that shy away from heat. Made with red kidney beans they have a firmer consistency, which I prefer.

(I didn’t classify these as “meat substitutes/alternatives” as they make no pretense at being “meat”, but these offer a good bite)

Great, easy meal as a PB burger or with sides. They cook from frozen in a matter of minutes. Reasonably priced.

2 patties (200g) also give you a very decent 14g of protein, virtually fat free.
