About This Site

Welcome to Best Burger Recipes! You've come to the perfect source for real, down-home information about one of America's favorite foods.

Veggie Burger Recipes
Not Just For Vegetarians

Now, although hamburgers are my favorite food, and YES I'd love to eat em everyday, I happen to like breathing just a bit more. But, a burger isn't just a beef patty, it's actually a food style. And thankfully, the burger is such an adaptable form that it lends itself well to other types of foods besides meats.

And with vegetarianism and veganism on the rise these days, the veggie burger is a good, healthy alternative to the classic hamburger profile.

About These Recipes

In this space I'll include some of my favorite veggie burger recipes from a number of sources. All will contain no meat products, with the exception being the presence of egg, which I feel is necessary as a binding agent. And most (not all) moderate vegetarians won't object to eggs.

Toasted Almond Tofu Veggie Burger Recipe

• 1 12-oz. package of firm tofu, drained, cut into 1-inch-thick slices.
• Non-stick vegetable oil spray
• 1/2 cup grated carrots
• 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
• 2 teaspoons minced peeled ginger
• 1 garlic minced clove
• 1/2 cup finely chopped toasted almonds
• 1 large egg white, beaten to blend
• 4 teaspoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon oriental sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted
• 4 sesame seed buns, toasted
• 4 tomato slices
• 1 cup alfalfa sprouts

Wrap the tofu in a dish towel. Place on a work surface. Weigh it all down with a board topped with food cans or weights for about an hour. Squeeze the towel-wrapped tofu to extract as much liquid as possible. Transfer the tofu to medium bowl.

Using a fork, mash the tofu into small pieces. Spray medium nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and place over medium heat.

Add carrot, green onions, ginger and garlic and saute until slightly softened for about 3 minutes. Cool. Mix carrot mixture, almonds, egg white, soy sauce, sesame oil and sesame seeds into tofu. Season with salt and pepper.

Shape the mixture into four patties.

If you're grilling, spray grill rack with nonstick spray, and turn up the barbecue to medium heat. If sauteing, spray large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and heat over medium heat. Lightly spray the patties on both sides with nonstick spray. Place your patties on grill or in skillet and cook until golden brown and heated through, about three minutes per side.

Place 1 burger on each bun bottom. Top each burger with a tomato slice, some sprouts and bun top.

Serve and enjoy! :-)
