Hey everyone, one of our biggest downfalls are burgers....we just love them, especially grilling at the beach or by the pool.......the juicier and tastier, the better.....

Anyway, we've been trying to cut back big time on eating beef so I was wondering if anyone had a a real good and "tried it and loved it" recipe for veggie/tofu/mushroom burgers that are so chockful of flavor it'll make your tastebuds explode!!! This way, we'll still get our burger fix but without all the added calories and stuff that comes with it....


Thanks a lot and hope to find some real good ones....:happy:

  • i havent tried any burger recipes out...but i think i am going to try making portabella mushroom burgers...my oldest wants me to make them...i just have to hope that my other 2 girls and my husband will be willing to give them a try...i have seen them done with a balsamic vinegar based marinade and then grilled real well.....my other favorite veggie recipe (no burger involved) is oven roasted veggies...eggplant diced, 2 small yellow squash and zucchini diced and a cut up red onion...all tossed with some olive oil (enough to coat lightly), seasoned with some pepper, onion and garlic powder...all roasted at 375 degrees and they are done when you everything is soft and cooked all the way through...i like to roast them until the skin on the eggplant is roasted .

    Hi, just joined the site and have been browsing the forums. I love burgers too, its a shame there are so many calories and fat in the beef ones. I found this page which has loads of recipies for veggie burgers, I have tried a couple of them and they turned out great.

    I'm thinking this thread is dead now, as that web site has the whole question sorted. Thank you for the link!
