I was thinking about making my own veggie burgers, vegan and gluten free too. So I took:

  1. 1/2 cup cooked pinto beans
  2. 1/2 cup cooked quinoa
  3. 1/4 cup (roughly) tahini (sesame butter)
  4. 1/4 cup tapioca flour
  5. Spices, cumin, garlic, turmeric.(anything else your little heart and taste buds desire)
  6. Mush it together real good and form patties.
  7. Cook over medium heat till brown or you lose patience and want to try then out..

I fixed them , fried them in a non stick skillet. They might brown better using some oil.

Anyway, they were pretty good. I might switch up the legume, using black beans. If I used garbanzo beans, it would pretty much be a falafel.

But the idea of spending money for frozen veggie burgers is over. I can make my own.

Power To The People!

Post Script.

I use a pressure cooker, Fagor Lux Multicooker, to be exact. It greatly expedites the cooking of dried beans, (all types) and grains like quinoa. You don’t need one, but it sure helps.
