Burger Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and chop sweet potatoes into chunks. Boil them in water for about 15 minutes or until tender. Drain and mash until smooth.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, cooked quinoa, white beans (drained and rinsed), diced red bell pepper, minced jalapeno, panko breadcrumbs, shredded Emmentaler cheese, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Form the Patties

    Shape the mixture into patties, approximately ½ inch thick. You should be able to make about 6 burgers.

  4. 4

    Cook the Burgers

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little olive oil. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Serve the quinoa burgers on vegan buns with maple tahini sauce and topped with micro greens.
