Two recipes, countless combinations, and unlimited potential – now that's a burger. Let's start from the bottom. A homemade bun, vegan mayonnaise, fresh green chard, fermented pink kimchi-kraut, and a fresh black bean burger patty. It's also topped with plenty of veggies and a drizzle of Louisiana hot sauce.

Preparation
To Make the Veggie Burger Buns:
- Put the flax meal, yeast, sugar, and warm water into a bowl and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and knead well.
- Then after a good kneading, roll out the dough on a floured board, about 1-inch thick and then use a utensil (large glass or biscuit cutter) to make eight 4-inch buns.
- Let them rise for just under an hour and then pop them into the oven at 350°F for 18 minutes.
To Make the Black Bean Garden Burgers:
- Pour half the beans into a large bowl and mash well with a potato masher or your hands.
- Add the remaining black beans, with the liquid, followed by the rice, oats, flour, and breadcrumbs. Pulse all the vegetables in your food processor and add them to the mix.
- After mixing the vegetables in well, toss in the remaining ingredients.
- Add flour and water until the mixture begins to stick together.
- Turn the burger base out onto a floured board and roll it into a rectangular shape, approximately 1-inch thick. Use a glass to cut out your desired burger sizes.
- Stick them in the freezer on a cookie sheet to set up.
- Pan-fry on medium-high for 5 minutes per side.
Notes
Top the burger with whatever fresh vegetables you have. Roasted eggplant and beet rounds can really transformed this into the stack monster. Toss your vegetables with a bit of olive oil and sea salt and then put them in the oven for 25 minutes at 450°F.
