I love a good and quick meal, and this burger fits the bill perfectly. For a 100% plastic-free meal, buy the buns from your local bakery or bake some yourself! Homemade bread is delicious. This recipe is featured in The Happy Herbivore Cookbook.

  1. I have never had a burger before that wasn\’t real meat. I have been having gallbladder problems the last few days so I needed a quick meal and tried this. OMG!!!! is all I can say. It was fabulous. I served it on top of cucumber noodle beet salad with organic salsa on top the burger. I also made sweet potato toast. Definitely a keeper. thanks so much.

  3. I don’t know what went wrong, exactly, but in the world of black bean burgers which don’t hold together this was the worst. Maybe my beans were too dry? Undercooked? Sigh… It tasted good as a baked crumbled topping for a sweet potato with hummus, though.
