Vegan Superfood Burgers

if you could take almost every healthy food you can think of and put it in a vegan burger, well, that’s what i did! Vegan Superfood Burgers are a fun, super healthy and a flavor-packed way to get in healthy fats, protein, greens and complex carbs. you won’t even realize how healthy this superfood burger actually is because the taste is out of this world. throw it on a bun, or place atop a delicious veggie + rice bowl and dang, you have yourself a blissful meal.

the topping is just mashed avocado, garlic, red onion and a lil sea salt. if you’re eating them true burger style, i recommend a healthier-made bun, lettuce, tomato and some hummus + dijon mustard. it’s quite the combo! this is a great way to get picky eaters to enjoy nutrient-dense foods. baked fries on the side would be awesome! you could pair this with my Roasted Potatoes and Garlic Sauce recipe.

directions

  1. combine the raw sunflower seeds, oats and kale in a food processor and pulse until a grainy texture forms.
