The Best Vegan Bean Burgers
These are the best bean burgers you will ever make! The texture is meaty, the flavor is zesty, and they grill absolutely perfectly. Made with just a few, easy accessible ingredients, these double decker vegan cheeseburgers will definitely be on your summer BBQ grill. I love to add Follow Your Heart plant-based cheese slices and melt them to the patty by covering them on the grill for a few seconds. After that, I load them up with chopped lettuce, onions, tomato, pickles, and of course my super special burger sauce.

INSTRUCTIONS:
In a food processor combine cooked brown rice, sunflower seeds, minced red onion, steak seasoning, chili powder, smoked paprika, cooked black beans, cooked beets, maple syrup, gluten-free breadcrumbs, and barbecue sauce. Pulse everything together until a thick dough forms. It should be a light pink color and you should have all of the pieces well incorporated together. Add more breadcrumbs if necessary.
Using an ice cream scoop or spoon, portion out equal sized patties of the dough using your hands to form a ball and lightly flatten them. Add the rolled patties to a lined baking sheet and put them in the freezer or refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
When you are ready to grill the bean burgers, place them directly on the grill and let them cook for 2-4 minutes on each side.
Using the Follow Your Heart cheese slices, add a slice to the top of the grilled patty, cover it for 30-50 seconds while the cheese melts, and remove the covering. Set the burgers aside until you are ready to garnish them with buns and fresh elements.
Garnish the cheese burgers with super special sauce, sliced pickles, sliced tomato, chopped lettuce, sliced red onions, all on a toasted bun.
Sing your song, do your dance, speak your truth, and enjoy the vegan cheeseburgers!
