Healthy Black Bean Brownies

Everybody loves brownies, but regular brownies can pack a whopping 300 calories each or more! (And let’s be real, who eats only one??)

These brownies, on the other hand, are so much better for you! They’re tasty and delicious and packed with protein, but free from chemicals and preservatives that other store-bought brands contain.

The first time I made these brownies was in college, and I didn’t tell my husband (then boyfriend) or his roommates what was in the brownies. Instead, i told them I was making healthy brownies and they had a special ingredient that they had to guess. AND THEY LOVED THEM! No one could guess that the secret ingredient was black beans and they all had more than one.
