Nutritional Information for Chili's Black Bean Burger

Chili's black-bean burger patty is a vegetarian substitute for its beef patty and can be added to any sandwich or eaten as a side dish. With this option, you can order a meatless version of the Mushroom-Swiss Burger or Oldtimer with Cheese. The Guacamole Burger can also be converted to a vegetarian sandwich if you omit the roasted jalapenos, as can the Classic Bacon Burger if you skip the bacon, according to the Chili's website.
