Veggie burger?!?!

I had my first veggie burger today! It was pretty bad? What can i do to spice it up a bit? Make it more appealing?

honestly there are some seriously good veggie burgers out there.

the tomato basil pizza burger is freaking delicious and even mushroom burgers are good.  try a few out, they're not for everyone but there are some AWESOME flavored ones you would like

I love black bean burgers

I used two cans of black beans and smush them all up

and then I add about a 1/4 cup of jalepenos diced and one medium onion diced

and then I add some oatmeal until it looks like the bean mix is the right consistency to make patties

Than I add a but if garlic powder and cayenne pepper and chili powder and stir it all up

then I get about 6 pieces of tinfoil and oil them,

 ball up some patties and bake them wrapped in tinfoil for about an hour (25-30 minutes on each side) at 350.

Then I stick them in the freezer for another hour or until I want to eat them and the patties can either be grilled , fried, or warmed up in the microwave

Well, excuse me. I am not the only person who posted  a reply here that mentioned an alternative to "veggie burger."

try the morningstar tomato basil pizza burgers ...

these are my favorite.  Lots of flavor and add a slice of fat free swiss cheese.

(Morningstar Griller Prime are also satisying)

the sunshine brand veggie burgers are amazing. soooo good. more expensive than the boca or morningstar brand, but taste better in my opinion.

also, try making your own. its very easy and you can pick and chose the ingredients to suit your taste. they will probably be much healthier than the frozen kind, too

i used to make a bean burger using red kidney beans, bread crumbs, ketchup, mustard, and whatever spices i felt like at the time. pan fry it and you are ready to go!

Try boca with the bruschetta taste.. they are delecious!!! i add cheese to it.. but if you vegan than just add ketchup or mustard..

Gardenburger portabella burgers are the ABSOLUTE GREATEST when cooked then diced up and tossed with pasta and tomato sauce. You don't even have to add cheese--the burger has cheese in it! I know, right? It's incredible.
