Black Bean Fritters

"I used to go to a Vegatarian Cafe in Bethlehem, PA and they made this dish which is phenomenal. They are VERY guarded about their recipes so I came up with this version which is comparable! I have been having a hard time getting these to stick together while cooking, so I would suggest throwing in an egg or two(?) I haven't tried that yet, but I wll will repost once I do."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I have been tattooing professionally for 10 years. <br />I had my first baby in March 2005. He's the best thing that ever happened to me! <br />Update: Since this post, I had twins in May 2007. Unfortunately one was born with a Congenital defect called Diaphragmatic Hernia. She has been in the hospital since she was born and as of today it has been almost 8 months. As soon as we come home, I plan to start getting back in the kitchen, but it has been the last thing on my mind as of late. <br />2nd Update: My daughter has been home for a year now and she's been doing really well. She's still has a long way to go, but she's strong as an ox!</p>
