We all know you got buns, hun. But do you know what you should slide in between them? A vegan White Bean Burger!
Naturally gluten free and packed with fiber and protein, these hearty plant based burgers are the perfect staple for anyone wanting to add more plants into their diet. Don’t let their color fool you though, these burgers are not skimping on flavor. Their color comes from a base of cannellini beans and white sweet potato which pair perfectly with the spices loaded into each bite.
Making these burgers also could not be easier. Toss your ingredients in a food processor, mold them into patties, bake, and eat! They also keep well in the fridge, making them a great meal prep staple. I like to make a big batch so I can enjoy them all week long. No worries about getting bored though! I switch up my burger toppings everyday or make a burger bowl salad with any veggies I have leftover in the fridge. I like to add a dollop of hummus on top, but you can’t go wrong with the classic ketchup and mustard. Feel free to make it your own and go wild with the flavor combinations.
