Remember my Buns of Fluff post? Well, now you get to find out what happened with those fine buns! We make a lot of veggie burgers in our apartment. More often than not, we make the beet burgers from Color Me Vegan. The recipe is full of wholesome ingredients and the burgers hold their shape perfectly. I’ve successfully served them to my non-vegan parents and passed the recipe along to several interested friends. They never fail! But, since my Vegan MoFo theme is to try new recipes from cookbooks/magazines I own, I had to step outside my vegan burger comfort zone and fill my buns with something different. That something different turned out to be equally delicious!
While not as strikingly pretty as a beet burger, the Mushroom Pecan burgers from Let Them Eat Vegan are definitely worthy of a gold star. They are filled with mushrooms, onions, oats, pecans, spices, tahini (!!!), and a medley of other ingredients. This is another burger that holds together nicely and appreciates whatever condiments you love most. I think my buns were mighty happy.


Mmmm, mushrooms and tahini. This has to be good. And you made it look so pretty too :)
Thanks Nikki! I add tahini to every veggie burger even when the recipe doesn’t call for it, because I love it so very much!
Oh the mushrooms sound so yummy, earthy & fall! Better than the beet to me :))))
How can one go wrong with mushrooms and pecans! Looks yummy. One of my favorite burgers is a mushroom pecan. I use the recipe from Colleen Patrick Goudreau and it’s mighty tasty.
Colleen seems to have a lot of wonderful burger recipes! I didn’t know she created a mushroom pecan one too!
Ooooh it’s nice to hear that you love the Color Me Vegan beet burgers, I’ve been meaning to make them for ages!
It’s a great recipe! I usually mix it up a bit every time I make it – adding this and that!
ohgoodgolly…better than the fig jam idea! :)
