Sunflower Veggie Tofu Burgers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• In the bowl of a food processor, add sunflower seeds. Process until finely ground.
• Add onion, brown rice, thyme, salt, and water and process until combined.
• Add carrot and celery and pulse several times to combine.
• Using a ½ cup (120 ml) measuring cup, portion 5 patties from the mixture. Place onto a lightly greased parchment-lined sheet pan.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until firm and browned, flipping over halfway through.
• Serve burgers with your favorite fixins.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Slice tofu into 1/4-inch-thick slabs and pat dry with paper towel. Arrange tofu on one half of a rimmed baking sheet; brush both sides with oil. Spread mushrooms on the other half of the baking sheet; toss with 2 tablespoons oil and salt and pepper.
• On a second rimmed baking sheet, toss beans and grated beet with 1 tablespoon oil and salt and pepper, then spread the mixture into one layer.
• Transfer both baking sheets to the oven. Roast bean-beet mixture, tossing occasionally, until beans begin to split and beets are tender and golden, about 15 minutes. Roast mushrooms and tofu until golden and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 25 minutes. Let everything cool.
• Place nuts in a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground. Add cooled bean-beet mixture, mushrooms, tofu, panko, cheese, eggs, mayonnaise, scallion, garlic, pimentón and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Pulse until ingredients are just combined. Pulse in tempeh and rice but do not overprocess. You want small chunks, not a smooth mixture. Scrape mixture into a bowl and chill at least 2 hours or up to 5 days (you can also freeze the burger mix).
• When you are ready to make the burgers, divide mixture into 6 equal portions and form each portion into a patty about 1 inch thick. Return to the fridge until just before grilling. They grill better when they start out cold.
• Heat the grill. Cook the burgers over a low fire until they are charred on both sides and firm when you press on them, 4 to 6 minutes per side. If they start to burn before they firm up, move them to the sides of the grill to finish cooking over indirect heat. Alternatively, you can cook these on a grill pan or in a skillet over low heat.

Steps:

• in a small saucepan, bring the rice and water to a boil. reduce to a simmer and cook rice until tender, but not mushy. (about 20 minutes) when rice is cooked, remove from heat and stir in the minced garlic.
• while rice cooks, prepare and combine the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. add the cooked rice and garlic mixture to the bowl, and mash everything together well.
• pressing firmly, form mixture into 6 patties.
• heat the oil on a well seasoned griddle or non-stick pan, and cook the burgers over medium heat until lightly browned. (about 6 minutes per side).
