Haven’t had much luck lately making veggie burgers? You can stop searching for the perfect recipe – we’ve got it! The secret ingredient is textured vegetable protein (TVP), which creates a delicate, delicious texture (bet you won’t miss the meat!).

Bonus: our dried cranberries add a tangy-sweet touch you’ll love.  Better yet, a slice of cheese on top of the patty makes a perfect sweet and salty combo. And if you’re headed out on a camping trip, they’re perfect – no refrigeration required!

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (425°F).

  2. Reconstitute the TVP in vegetable broth or boiling water. Set aside to rest for 10 minutes. Drain any remaining liquid. Set aside.

  3. Combine all ingredients for the patties in a big bowl. Form 4 patties.

  4. Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Fry patties for 3 minutes on each side or until golden. Put the patties in the oven for about 20 minutes to finish cooking.

  5. Add your favourite toppings to create a tasty “burger” just the way you like it!
