Vegan Beet & Lentil Burgers with Sweet Potato Fries

Veggie burgers are pretty easy to come by these days. When I go to the freezer aisle of grocery stores, there are many types and flavors. The only problem is, most of the burgers have soy and gluten, and the ones that do no,  have so little protein they really aren’t offering much nutrition.

This latest food project was to make up a flavorful, hearty, and nutrient-dense burger without soy. The main ingredients are just steamed lentils and beets! It’s super easy to make and I found it to be very filling. After practicing a couple of times, I teamed up with my friend Hetal of Prettypolymath and I made the burgers, she made the seasoned baked sweet potato fries. Hetal will show you how to get the fries nice and crisp in the oven, where I show you how to make a great burger which is vegan and gluten free.
Check out my latest video to see how it’s done.
