Why You Will Love This Recipe
These are the veggie burgers that are going to make you ACTUALLY like eating veggie burgers.
I mean you might already have some favorite sweet potato veggie burgers, black bean power burgers or maybe you totally dig the vegan buffalo patties with avocado dip, BUT these burgers are CHANGING THE GAME for a FEW reasons:
- ZERO BEANS. I know. It blew my mind too.
- LOW CARB. See above point with NO beans. Leaving our legume friends out of these veggie burger shenanigans knocks back ALL of them carbs that you’re trying to avoid for bikini-body reasons. BUT you still get the whole burger feeling without having to resort to something like a grilled Thai beef salad and eating meat.
- Did you know that you could blend up walnuts, mix it with cauliflower, and it would mimic the texture of MEAT? I saw all these meatless-meat recipes on Pinterest, using walnuts, and my curiosity was piqued. However, there were not high hopes because nuts = meat? DOES NOT COMPUTE.
- Last, but not least, the BEST part: you can GRILL THEM.

Why Is It So Hard to Grill a Veggie Burger
Grilled veggies burgers that 1. Taste great and 2. Actually hold together while you give them some smoky char – yes, EVEN WHEN you flip them (peep those grill marks yo!) – are a real thing that exists in the universe of food.
We’ve all been there. Tryin’a grill a burger, made of plants and whole-food nutrition and, when you go to flip, your face takes a DIP.
Translation: you frown because your delicious food is now a pile-of-mush and is most DEFINITELY not going near a face near you soon.
Tips To Make A Perfect Veggie Burger
Let’s talk about how to make veggie burgers that you actually love.
Step 1: TOAST the walnuts. RESIST the urge to use them raw, so that you can succeed in all your goals of never turning on the oven in the Summer. This is gonna give your burgs’ a MEGA punch of roasty-toasty nutty vibes that is going to do wonderful things inside your mouth. SRSLY.
Step 2: Throw almost ALL of the ingredients in a food processor and let it do its THANG, until everything is mushy and mixed together. <– How EASY is that.
Step 3: Form into patties. The best way to do this is to pack the mixture into a 1/3 cup measure and then form that perfectly-measured amount into your plant-based patties.
Step 4: GRILL. <3 Charry, grill marks FOREVAH <3
Step 5: Top with the creamiest (2 ingredient!) coconut avocado sauce because AVOCADOS, and then pile HIGH on your lettuce of choice (I’m a butter lettuce fan!) with ALL the fixins:
- Bean sprouts
- Peanuts
- More Cilantro
- More Green onion
- More sesame seeds
