This burger is easy to make, requiring simple methods and 10 wholesome ingredients<\/strong> you likely have on hand right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It all starts with black beans that are cooked down until dry and cracked, which helps keep the burgers from being mushy. Then comes toasted pecans, which are pulsed into a meal.<\/p>\n\n\n

Then we add quinoa<\/a>, mushrooms, sweet potatoes, cumin, chili powder<\/a>, BBQ sauce<\/a>, and salt. Quinoa adds moisture and also binds the burgers, and the rest is all about flavor: sweet potatoes for sweetness, mushrooms for “meatiness” and texture, and the spices and sauce for smoky BBQ flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n

For these burgers, it’s best to sear both sides on the stovetop and then finish baking in the oven, where they will dry out and firm up a bit. But they are firm enough for the grill as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once cooked, it’s all about the toppings. We went for vegan buns, lettuce, cabbage, red pepper, pickles, and more BBQ + a little hot sauce. Swoon.<\/p>\n\n\n
