    I love Morning Star Chipolte Black Bean Burger and their Chik'n Patties. The black bean ones don't taste like beef but are so delicious! And the chik'n ones taste just like the real thing, to me at least.

    I'm a vegetarian and I love everything from Quorn. Its a change of texture from Veg and Carbs. They're so much lower in fat too.

    Quorn is the bomb! I seriously eat it every day! Nom!!!!

    We had veggie burgers tonight (got it from my food diary) and ya talking about GOOD--the yum! We had sauteed brocollini, cauliflower and fresh corn on the cob (instead of french fries or other type of yummy but fattening sides) soooooo good. These Amy 1/4 pound veggie burgers are the BOMB!

    Amy's - Quarter Pound Veggie Burger, 1 burger
    Rudi's Organic Bakery - Multigrain Sandwich Flatz,


    Vegenaise - Vegan Mayonnaise ,
    Annie's Naturals - Organic Dijon Mustard
    Clearly Organic - Ketchup, 0.25 TBSP
    Compliments - Organic Romaine Hearts Lettuce, 2.0 leaves
    Fresh - Purple Onion Slice, 2 slice
    Almond - Pepperjack Vegan Cheese
    Organic Vine Ripened - Tomato Slice, Thin/Small 2 slice, thin/small
    Trader Joe's - Corn on the Cob,
    Generic - Brocollini,
    Cauliflower - Cooked Without Salt,

    Dasani - Bottled Water, 20 fl oz

    I get mine from M&M Meat Shops. It sounds bad to get them from a meat place but they are DELICIOUS. :)

    I love veggie burgers! My all time favorite is Morning Star black bean burger 1/4 lb. I eat it on a sandwich thin with tomatoe and onion...and a bit of ketchup! I haven't eaten meat in 7 months...don't even miss it!

    I get Boca Original Veggie Burgers at Sam's. My husband grills them quick on the grill and I freeze them. When I want one, just get it out of the freezer and warm for a few seconds- careful they can get hard. I put them on thinwich bread w/piece of cheese, spicy mustard. catsup and a slice of tomatoe. YUM!:flowerforyou:

    I love veggie burgers, I recently tried a black bean veggie burger and it was so tasty. A good way to get your protein in if you are a strict vegetarian. :)

    If you like a really basic, tastes-like-meat veggie burger, I recommend Boca Original Vegan. It's so good, and low-cal but high-protein.

    I like the black bean burgers. Morningstar ones are good, but too processed for me.

    Black bean is my fav too. I typically only get the premade ones to take to a cook out. I also have used a portabella mushroom as a patty. It works really well. Be sure to clean out the gills though. Also, keep a close eye on it, I had mine stolen at a cook out because it had cheese on it and the culprit picked it because it was the most perfectly round patty he had ever seen! lol

    If you into a more "veggie" veggie burger, Trader Joe's Masala veggie burgers are so delicious and exotic!

    I have never had a veggie burger before. Any good? Preferences on what brand?

    Good choice! There are some really tasty ones out there...I am in a tiny town and I can't get them anymore....but it's a great way to blot out a lot of calories, and cut down on meat. Also, look out for the veggie dogs too.

    My all time favorite vegan burgers are Tandoor Chef's Vegetable Masala Burgers. Absolutely delicious, although they taste more like Indian somosas than actual burgers. My next fave is Dr. Praeger's California Veggie Burgers; again, they don't really taste like a meat burger, but they are yummy. Amy's also makes a number of good vegan burgers if you are looking for something that has a "meatier" texture.
