Join the discussionI’m very excited to try these! Maybe today since I have a snow day….
I too have always bought the freezer aisle ones, and am slowly but surely replacing some of my store-bought staples with homemade versions. Plus I LOVE spicy so I think I’ll like this version a lot.
This, like many of your recipes, looks great! Just wondering, where can I find the nutrition information for recipes? It looks like some have it, some don’t.
Thank you, Gina! We only provide nutrition information on the diet recipes. There are several websites where you can enter the ingredients and it will tell you the nutritional info. Hope that helps!
Can these be grilled instead of reheating in the oven? I know that some of the homemade veggie burgers I’ve made are too fragile to grill. I don’t mind baking them, but it’s nice to cook one on the grill, particularly if my husband is preparing hamburgers on the grill as well.
They can definitely be grilled. I’ve had success grilling them as is, but I’ve also found that if you start them off on tin foil, and then just nudge them off after they begin to heat up and stick together, they tend to stay better.
Hi Regan, this sounds like a terrific recipe that I’m keen to try out. For thirty ounces of beans, is that the total weight of canned beans with their water, or cooked and drained beans?
Thank you! That is the total weight of canned beans with the water. It would be less than that after they are drained.
I have been looking for the perfect veggie burger recipe and now I have found it. Thanks!! You don’t happen to have the calorie info?
Glad you like it! I’m not sure about the calorie info, but if you search for calorie counters on Google, there are lots of sites that can tell you.
Made these and froze them but they won’t separate from the wax paper since they’re stacked (with wax paper in between). I’ll probably try parchment next time but for this batch, I’ll just thaw before separating.For people asking about calories: I calculated 1332 for the whole batch which is 167/burger (or 111 per burger if you’re like me and got 12 out of the recipe).
Thanks for the tips Danielle!
Has anyone tried making these from frozen instead of thawing? Thanks!
Has anyone made these directly from frozen without thawing first? Thanks!
