This is the first time I’ve made a big patty. This is a 1/3 pounder.

Homemade? I'm a meat eater but I've had some decent from scratch veggie burgers. I've always wanted to make my own with beans.

Recipe if Homemade would be appreciated.

Bagel flavor?

Don’t laugh. Blueberry. It’s all I had.

Ah nice, I've seen Kenjis recipe but haven't tried it, thanks. I even have his recipe book which I haven't used enough of.

I have his book, The Food Lab.

How was it with the rest tho?

All good. Even the bagel. Maybe this will help you understand. I’ve had one of these veggie burgers assembled different ways, 7 out of the last 8 meals.

So delicious.

Yes! I inhaled it.

If you do OMAD (one meal a day), this would be a perfect one meal. Maybe add fries.

I need to do OMAD. I can’t! 😂

Sweet mama!

Why is it on a blueberry bagel?

How is this not the top comment ?!?!?!

It’s all I had. Sweet and savory. It’s a thing.

Is that a blueberry bagel!....no dude...a everything bagel would have tasted better I think

You are absolutely right!!! Am I the only one that goes with what’s on hand? I’m telling you it worked. Go wacky when you can. Stand out with your bagel and never apologize for your boiled bread choice.

Lol I did make a grilled cheese with a hot dog bun because I was out of regular bread today 🤣

You maverick! I bet it was great. And what a fun form factor. Keep it up you free range chef!

It worked and my son loved it haha. I was like "well its a type of bread....it'll work" 🤣

I've played around with making veggie burgers with mushrooms. You can get surprisingly close to the texture of beef. And mushrooms pretty much take whatever flavor you add to it. The problem I run into is the mixture has to be pureed and you end up with a sticky mix that you have to shape as you drop it into the pan. They were still delicious.

Are they mushy in texture and mouth feel?

Not after you cook them. They have that ground beef feel. Obviously not an exact analogue but close enough.

Recipe?

I used this as a starting point. I don't think I added all the veggies. But I do remember now using pinto beans as the binder.

Thanks. I’ll play a bit and circle back.

And on a blueberry bagel! He's a maaaaad maaaaan!

I bet it was fabulous tho. Blueberry is a nice balance of tart and sweet, complimenting savory well. There's a reason they make salad dressing with it.

Look at DJ showing us all what critical thinking looks like! It was really good! 🙂

the picture makes me feel like an actual burger may be healthier.

Magnifique ! Damn I would Love to eat it !

Looks delicious😋

It's an awesome cook book, I need to dig back into it.

One could spend a lifetime exploring it.

Very true.
