I’m not sure why, but I’ve always had it in my head that making your own veggie burgers was difficult. Maybe that’s because the one time that I attempted doing it myself, many many years back, it didn’t turn out so wall. Or maybe it’s because most recipes out there have a long list of ingredients and detailed instructions. Not these 4 Ingredient Veggie Burgers!
These 4 Ingredient Veggie Burgers are vegetarian, gluten-free, and vegan to boot! Even if that weren’t all enough, they are made with just 4. Count them - 4 ingredients. Most of which I would consider being pantry staples too.
Even better? These burgers are SO completely versatile. Don’t want to use the same beans that I did? Use whatever ones you want. Black beans, lentils, etc. Favor a certain veggie over another? Use that one! Prefer your burgers topped with this or that? Go for it! Bun? No bun?
No matter which way you mix and match, slice and dice, top them, or heat them up, these burgers are as quick and easy to make as any burger can be. As far as the spices go, I went with 1 Tbsp. dried chopped chives and 1 Tbsp. paprika. But, like I said, you should feel free to use whatever spices you like.
With some local homemade feta cheese and tzatziki on hand, I decided to make my burgers into a Mediterranean or ‘Greek’ inspired meal tonight. Bunless too!
