Tis the season to fire up the grill and go HAM on [veggie] burgers with all the fixins'! Pun quite intended.
Veggie burgers are fantastical because they're kind of like a meal in a bowl without the bowl. Meal in a plate? Meal on a plate? Whatever.
The point is that you can stuff all sorts of beans/legumes/whole grains/healthy fats into veggie burgers and season 'em up with whatever flavor you fancy. Craving Indian? Add curry powder, ginger, and turmeric. Feeling Mexican? Add cumin, avocado, cilantro, chili powder, and lime juice. Mediterranean fan? Throw in some kalamata olives, lemon juice, and za'atar.
My typical veggie burger formula is one can of beans, one egg or "flax egg," half a cup of oats or bread crumbs, half a teaspoon of salt, and loads of flavorful spices. It's pretty much fool-proof!
Skip the saturated fat in red meat and go veggie this summer, even if it's just for one little cookout. Your tastebuds and tummy will thank you!

Yes, I so needed this! Last summer was my first as a wife and I think I made black bean burgers like twice a week. My husband now says that he has had enough for the next 10 years. Haha. These will spice things up!
I've made the lentil + mushroom burgers from Healthy Maven and they were fabulous!
