"The Best Veggie Burger under $10!"
This Burger is AWESOME! It's flavorful and tender but holds together nicely. Veggie Burgers have a tendancy to fall apart, to avoid that people add Whole Wheat Flour or Organic Unbleached Flour. I use a homeade Oat Flour and a Flax mixture. No "Kitchen Magician" or "Chef's Hat" required just a little TLC and a couple of Appliances. We're not going to forget how cost effective this one is either, making 8 patties which means left overs for lunch or snack. With each ingredient will be the price, you can click on the link to download free coupons for the ingredients that list one. This sandwich is just under $10, you can't loose...enjoy!
What You Will Need:
Magic Bullet or Grinder
Food Processor
Ingredients 14 Prep Time 35 minutes
Makes 8 Patties
1 medium sized Yellow Onion, .49 lb at any Fruit or Farmers Market
1/4 tsp of Pink Himalayan or Sea Salt
1/2 tsp of Powdered Rosemary
1/2 tsp of Garlic Powder
1/4 tsp of Sage
1/4 tsp of White Pepper
1/4 tbsp of Olive Oil
Directions:
Chop Carrot, Onion and Celery and Place them into the Food Processor to chop them up very fine.
Empty the diced vegetables into a large bowl and set it to the side. Rinse and drain your corn and chickpeas and put them into the food processor. Puree them until they become creamy but some of the corn will still have form.While that's in the food processor take 1/4 cup of Ground Flaxseed and 4 tbsp of Almond Milk, mix them together and set them to the side.
Empty the pureed contents into the large bowl you placed to the side. Take 1/3 cup of Oats and put it into a Magic Bullet and grind it down to a powder. Pour the Oat Flower into the large bowl with the other ingredients. Take your Flax and Almond Milk mixture and that into the bowl with the seasonings. Take a spoon and fold the ingredients until everything is mixed together well.
Take your Olive Oil and put it into a Stainless Steel pan on medium high heat. Make the mixture into patties with your hands and place them into the pan with the oil. Cook them between 5-7 minutes each side.
