Vegan broccoli burger patties

Some days, you just need a burger. And today is one of those days.

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I love a good fat burger, I am not the type of girl that just orders a salad every time I go out. I mean, I used to be that girl…I used to be super self-conscious and so over concerned about my thighs touching. Now I literally do NOT care, and I suggest you try this approach, too. The one thing I will never understand is how girls go on dates, and just order a salad. Like, if I go on a date, I will order the whole damn menu and undo my button just so I can fit more lol!

Anyway, I was craving a burger today but I wasn’t in the mood to go out. I opened the fridge, and surprisingly my fridge looked pretty bare. Broccoli, a handful of shallots, some leftover easter egg chocolate and a bottle of hot sauce (staple in this house) were the only goods I could find. I hesitated for good 8 seconds, but then I thought, yep, I can work with that. Guys, it’s time for you to meet my newest creation. Simple, vegan broccoli burger patties. YUM.

Speaking of simple, this burger recipe requires just 1 bowl and 30 minutes to make. Hello simple, indeed. It is also high in vitamins A, C and K, as well as iron, magnesium and beta-carotene.

Homemade peanut butter in 3 steps 🥜✨😍 Roa Homemade peanut butter in 3 steps 🥜✨😍  Roast 200g peanuts at 180°C for 20–25 min, cool, then blend (add 3–4 dates if you like it sweet). At first, the peanuts will turn into a crumbly, sandy mix — but keep going! Soon it’ll be creamy and dreamy. Add salt to taste.  Store in a jar & enjoy for up to 2 weeks (if it lasts that long 😉).  #homemade #peanutbutter #easyrecipes #veganfood #vegansnack #plantbased #veganrecipes #whatveganseat #crueltyfree #dairyfree #healthyeating #veganprotein #veganlife #wholefoods #veganfoodshare #veganlifestyle #healthyvegan #simplevegan #veganeats #plantbasedrecipes #veganpantry #oilfreevegan #cleanvegan #veganinspo #nutbutterlove #vegancomfortfood
