Here’s yet another extremely grillable veggie burger that’s going to become one of your summer favorites: my Red Bean and Roasted Red Pepper Burger mixed up with all sorts of insanely delicious things, like brown rice, roasted almonds, roasted mushrooms, and tempeh. Here at Holy Cow Vegan I’ve been sharing burgers with you each summer (and sometimes winter, because is there really a time when you would say no to a burger?). I’ve created quite a few that stand up beautifully on the grill, like my Bean and Oats Burger, my Quinoa and Bean Burger, and my Black Bean and Black Rice Burger. I am proud to add this incredibly flavorful burger to that hallowed group. There’s a lot here to love. The burger is smoky with the roasted red peppers, smoked paprika and cumin. Tamari and mushrooms add umami. Tempeh, almonds and beans add meatiness and tons of protein. In fact, there is 13 grams of protein and more than 5 grams of fiber in each of these burgers. Because veggie burgers tend to get too mushy because of the high moisture content of beans and veggies that often go into these recipes, I roasted the beans and the mushrooms beforehand to extract as much moisture as possible. This is a little extra work, yet, but it’s well worth the trouble to produce flavorful patties that hold up well on the grill. Check to get new recipe updates by email.
There are many flavorings that go into this grillable veggie burger, yes, but there are no hard and fast rules here. If you don’t have smoked paprika, leave it out. No rosemary? Try sage instead, or thyme. Flavor your burger as you go along, and let your tastebuds tell you what you need. You won’t go wrong.
