I like to try and invent a variety of veggie burgers and these seriously are amazing. Most veggie burgers have cooked peas and corn, which are two of my least favorite veggies. I prefer broccoli and sweet potato so that’s what I put in this recipe.
You can always bake them in the oven but I prefer the crispy texture that comes from pan-frying or grilling. If you want to bake, I would recommend coating the burgers in cornmeal first.
I used Cajun Seasoning for a little bit of heat but you can substitute hot sauce or eliminate it altogether. These burgers are gluten-free but if you want them to hold together better, add 1/2 cup of bread crumbs.
Burgers can be made ahead and frozen.
ENJOY!

I love mushrooms and used to think that even though they were delicious, they did not offer much nutritional value. I am happy to say that I was wrong.
Many varieties of mushrooms are a great source of Selenium and all varieties provide a host of essential nutrients. Mushrooms are the only plant source that makes bone-loving Vitamin D when exposed to sunlight.
I used Cremini mushrooms in this recipe, which is an adult version of White Button mushrooms that help improve immune function.
In addition, mushrooms contain antioxidants and assist in metabolic processes.

I heart Brussels Sprouts! Growing up I remember my mom anxiously awaiting spring’s harvest. These yummy small cabbages can be served savory or sweet.
I used maple syrup in the initial cooking phase to achieve the underlying sweetness in the finished dish. The creaminess comes from Go Veggie’s Vegan Chive and Garlic Cream Cheese.
ENJOY!
