Market Recipe Blog: Vegan Burger Bowls

By Joyce Liao on November 14, 2018

Market Recipe Blog: Vegan Burger Bowls

 

Tired of throwing cubes of tofu in your veggie bowls? These make-ahead patties are made with just a handful of ingredients, and are perfect to throw onto a salad or grain base for a wholesome meal!

Vegan Burger Bowls

Yield: 2 servings

Recipe

PATTIES
  • 1 c. rice, uncooked and divided (1/2 c. cooked rice for burger patties; the rest is for rice bowl)
  • ½ c. lentils, uncooked
  • 2 tsp. olive oil
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 large carrots, chopped finely
  • 2 handfuls of kale, chopped
TO ASSEMBLE
  • Kale, sautéed
  • Avocado
  • 1-2 tbsp. pesto

Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 300F.
    2. For the patties, cook rice in one pot and lentils in another. Once both are cooked, add ½ c. of the rice and lentils to a high speed binder or food processor.
    3. In a saucepan over medium high heat, add in olive oil and onions and sauté until the onions are beginning to caramelize. Add in the chopped carrots and kale.
    4. Once all the veggies are cooked, add everything to the blender or food processor along with the rice and lentils, and give it a whirl until mixture is easily moldable into patties. Don’t overmix because you don’t want it to be super mushy.
  1. Pan-fry the patties using medium heat until the exterior is brown, then transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. I baked these for 10-15 minutes in the oven until the interior has completely cooked. You can also just bake them at 350F if you don’t want to go through pan-frying them first, but you’ll have to leave them in the oven for longer.
  2. Once patties are done, mix the leftover cooked rice with pesto and assemble the bowl to your liking!
