These BBQ Lentil Mushroom Burgers are hearty, smoky, and packed with plant-based protein. A delicious homemade burger that’s perfect for lunch or dinner!
Ingredients:
• One tablespoon chia seeds
• Three tablespoons water
• One cup sweet onion, chopped
• Eight ounces cremini mushrooms, chopped
• Two garlic cloves, chopped
• One tablespoon olive oil
• One tablespoon BBQ seasoning
• One and a half cups canned lentils, drained and rinsed
• One third cup quick oats (plus more if needed)
• Two tablespoons arrowroot starch
• One tablespoon tamari
• One tomato, sliced
• One avocado, sliced
Directions:
Mix the chia seeds and water to make a chia egg. Let it sit for at least ten minutes.
Preheat the oven to three hundred seventy-five degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Sauté the onion, mushrooms, and garlic in olive oil until softened. Add the BBQ seasoning and cook for another two minutes.
Add the chia egg, cooked vegetables, lentils, oats, arrowroot starch, and tamari to a food processor. Blend until a thick paste forms, adding more oats if needed.
Shape the mixture into six patties and place them on the prepared baking tray.
Bake for about thirty minutes, carefully flipping after twenty minutes, until firm.
Serve topped with sliced tomato and avocado.
Notes:
• Switch up the flavor by using your favorite spice blend instead of BBQ seasoning.
Save this recipe for your next meatless burger night!
