Mushroom and Lentil Burgers Recipe
Who needs a boring frozen veggie patty when you can whip up these homemade beauties? Mushrooms bring a rich, meaty texture without the meat. Lentils add protein, making these burgers as filling as they are flavorful. A little garlic, some smoky spices, and a touch of magic (aka patience) bring it all together. The result? A burger that actually holds together, tastes incredible, and doesn’t leave you questioning your life choices. Pile it high with toppings, slap it on a bun, or eat it naked—no judgment here. These plant-based patties will change your burger game forever.
