Vegan Burger Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
Prepare the Flax Egg
In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed with water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.
Cook the Quinoa and Ancient Grains
Rinse quinoa and ancient grains under cold water. In a saucepan, combine quinoa and ancient grains with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it cool.
Form Patties
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form each portion into a patty.
Cook the Patties
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Cook each patty for about 5-6 minutes on each side, until golden brown and heated through.
Assemble the Burger
On each lettuce leaf, place a burger patty, top with fresh salsa and avocado slices. Add more lettuce if desired.
Serve with Broccoli
Serve the vegan burger with a side of steamed broccoli.
