Veggie Burgers

So remember how last winter we got a teeny bit obsessed about making this amazing homemade bread we posted about? Well.......we are now just a teeny bit obsessed with another recipe by the same lady (Dalai Mama is the name of her old blog, her real name is Catherine Newman).

Prepare to be amazed.

We've substituted brown rice for the bulgur, only because we always have brown rice around but never bulgur. Leftover cold brown rice will work wonderfully too. And at first we made them like she does, by frying them in olive oil on the stove. But they always fell apart and got very crumbly. So tonight we tried them on the grill. They turned out perfectly! And the mayo/chipotle/lime sauce? Heavenly..... We each eat one burger, then share another together. And then, we convince Charlotte to give us the last half of hers that she is not going to eat. And then, we wonder if it would be too much to share another one. We actually contemplated giving up ice cream cones for dessert in order to eat one more burger.

Try making these burgers. You won't be sorry.
