How to Make

  • Veggie Burger Patties:

  • Step 1: Mix the first 10 ingredients together (lentils - cumin) in a large bowl. Once mixed, sprinkle in flour and mix thoroughly. Form 6 to 8 patties from this mix. Heat a skillet with a little oil over medium heat and sear in a hot pan until golden brown, about 5 minutes.

  • Balsamic Onions:

  • Step 2: Heat a pot up over medium heat and add in the olive oil. Add the garlic, rosemary and thyme and sauté lightly to bloom the herbs and garlic. Add onions and salt, then toss the onions with the garlic herb mixture to fully coat. Cook down the onions until they start to caramelize, about 10 minutes. Once the onions are caramelized, add the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. Mix everything together in the pot and simmer until the liquid becomes a syrup consistency, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.

  • Chipotle Aioli:

  • Step 3: Blend the chipotle peppers in a blender until smooth. Add in the mayonnaise, BBQ sauce and chipotle powder and mix until smooth.

  • To Assemble:

  • Step 4: On a bun, place a handful of arugula. Place a veggie patty on the arugula. Garnish the patty with balsamic onions, goat cheese and chipotle aioli. Place top bun on and enjoy!
