In the dawn of the commercial veggie burger era, it seemed our only options were frozen patties made by the likes of Boca Burger, Gardenburger and MorningStar Farms. Their intentions were good, they didn\u2019t contain meat, and … well, those are the only two positive things you can really say about them. They were pretty terrible.<\/p>\n
But the recent rise of the Impossible Burger, a veggie burger engineered by neuroscientists that tastes, feels and \u201cbleeds\u201d like real red meat, has elevated our expectations. Because of that, food bloggers and recipe developers have been pushed to create better recipes for made-from-scratch veggie burger patties. <\/p>\n
We\u2019ve picked 21 of our favorites, including one that can be grilled without falling apart (if you\u2019ve ever tried to do this, you\u2019ll know how difficult it can be). They\u2019re made with everything from wild rice to black beans, cauliflower, sweet potatoes and beets. They\u2019re unlikely to taste or look like actual beef the way an Impossible Burger does, but rather they embrace their unique flavors and textures.<\/p>\n
In other words, they\u2019re nothing like those old frozen patties<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
