I had fried bean patties before and they were great. The pinto ones had Mexican seasoning and the white had herb seasoning. I don't know what filler the mashed beans used to hold together but they were delicious on a bed of greens.

Not unusual, but we love Ham & Bean soup. I’ve always added a couple of hot mashed potatoes to the broth.
