  • 1/2 cup grated zucchini
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs (use gluten-free breadcrumbs if needed)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • 1 egg (or a flax egg for a vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  1. In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, cooked quinoa, grated carrots, grated zucchini, red bell pepper, red onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese (if using), egg (or flax egg for a vegan option), ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Pulse the mixture until it’s well combined but still slightly chunky. You want the mixture to hold together.

  2. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil.
  3. Cook the veggie burger patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and heated through.

    Assemble the Veggie Voyage Burger:

  1. While the patties are cooking, prepare the other ingredients.
  2. Slice the whole wheat burger buns in half.
  3. Spread a dollop of mayonnaise or your preferred burger sauce on the bottom bun.
  4. Place a lettuce leaf on top of the sauce.
  5. Add a cooked veggie burger patty on the bun.
  6. Top the patty with sliced tomatoes, red onion, and avocado slices.
  7. Optionally, add mustard or ketchup if desired.
  8. Finish with the top bun.
