🥘 Ingredients and Substitutions

  • BEET - I like to use Beet here. I have shredded the Beet in food processor. It gives the perfect color and shape to these burgers
  • WALNUTS - You'll love the nuttiness in these Burgers
  • OLIVE OIL - To grill the Burgers
  • ONIONS & GARLIC - I have used chopped red onions and garlic. You can replace with Onion and Garlic Powder as well.
  • SALT & PEPPER - To season the Burgers
  • FLAXMEAL - This is what will hold the Burgers together. Just combine 1 tablespoon of Ground Flaxseeds with hot water and let it rest. It will soak up and thicken. Its the perfect replacement for eggs in Vegan Burgers.
  • CRUSHED SALTINE CRACKERS - This is the best replacement of Panko Breadcrumbs. Also it builds the flavors.
  • VEGAN WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE - You cannot have Burger without Worcestershire Sauce.
  • YELLOW MUSTARD - Another must in every Burger
  • SOY SAUCE - Helps build the flavors
  • KETCHUP - Use my recipe for Keto Ketchup if you want to. Its healthy and so good.
  • MAPLE SYRUP - A hint of sweetness goes a long way to build the flavors.
  • HOT SAUCE - Use my recipe for homemade Hot sauce if you want to.
  • LETTUCE, TOMATOES & ONIONS - To make the Burgers
  • HAMBURGER BUNS - Use healthy Gluten Free Hamburger Buns
  • VEGAN RANCH - Just a bit of it to smear on the buns. Tastes super yummm!

👩‍🍳 Instructions

STEP 1: SHRED THE BEETROOT

  • Peel and chop the head and tip off the Beetroots

STEP 2: SAUTE ONIONS & GARLIC

  • Heat Olive Oil in a skillet and saute the Onions and Garlic until fragrant
  • Add the Beetroot mixture and saute until the mixture dries out
  • Add the Flaxmeal and Crushed Saltine Crackers. Toss to combine.

STEP 3: SEASON

  • Season with all the other ingredients - Soy Sauce, Yellow Mustard, Hot Sauce, Maple Syrup, Ketchup, Vegan Worcestershire Sauce. Toss until combined.

💯 Tips

  • Don't worry about Beetroot making this taste Pungent! I know many of us don't like Beetroot for its excessive veggie like pungent taste. However, belive me on this. The sauces and seasonings will get Burgers taste nothing like Beetroot at the end!
  • You can easily skip the Saltine Crackers and use Crushed Ritz Crackers or just some Panko Breadcrumbs as well. It really helps hold the Burgers together.
  • You can replace Beetroot with Lentils. Lentils are the perfect replacement for Ground beef, You can use Brown Lentils or Green Lentils.
