This burger recipe is a copycat of a traditional meat burger but completely vegetarian!
So remember how I told you all that I’m a non-vegetarian living in a veg household?! Well these beyond burgers are perfect for getting my meat fix BUT also are completely vegetarian! Even my vegetarian husband can’t get enough of these! Now, I know, Beyond Meat makes pre-made burgers but lets be honest, they have no seasonings or flavor in them. So I used their Beyond Beef ground “meat” to come up with my own variation of a burger and the result are these beautiful, juicy, flavorful burgers that are super great for lunch or dinner!
The ground “meat” molds together just like regular meat so it’s super easy to add in the spices and form into burgers. I line my burgers with wax paper until I’m ready to cook them and while these are best had fresh, you can make the mixture in advance and refrigerate for up to two days and cook them up when you’re ready!
The best way to cook these is on a pre-seasoned griddle. Just spray your griddle with a little bit of cooking oil and let these babies sizzle! Once they’re close to done, you can melt the cheese on it just like a regular burger! Hope you enjoy these tasty burgers!
