Vegan Burger

By Nyneve

Recipe modified from one found in the Red Star Nutritional Yeast cookbook. It has great bones, and I plan on experimenting with different seasonings. No need to be vegan to enjoy this tasty and satisfying burger.

Ingredients

• 1 c. textured vegetable protein (TVP)
• 3/4 c. boiling water
• 1/4 c. oats
• 1/4 c. flour
• 1 Tbsp nutritional yeast
• 1/2 tsp basil
• 1/2 tsp oregano
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp mustard
• 2 Tbsp ketchup
• 2 Tbsp soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp peanut butter or tahini

Preparation

Step 1

Place TVP in a bowl.
Add boiling water -- let sit for 5 minutes so TVP can absorb moisture.
Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
Shape into patties -- about 4-6.
Fry in pan with a little bit of oil until both sides are golden brown.
