I could use some suggestions on store bought veggie burgers. I know there are several brands, so which is the best? And none of them come with buns, correct? Thanks!
I eat them often. Actually had one today for lunch. Morningstar has many different choices. I recently found a Quinoa veggie burger which was pretty good.
That's cool that you want to eat veggie burgers and all but hopefully you're not thinking about eating them for health reasons...

I was just talking to some people about planning a cookout and having a vegetarian option. I suggested doing wild rice burgers which are pretty tasty. http://meatlessmealsformeateaters.blogspot.com/2012/02/wild-rice-and-black-bean-burgers.html I don't know if there is a store bought option for these but I wouldn't be surprised if Trader Joes or Whole Foods had them.
By definition, they're not BURGERs. They're veggie sandwiches. Also, turn in your man card at the door.
OOHHHHH Yeaaaahhh!!! HIGH FIVE!!!! CHOLESTEROL AND CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE DUUUDE!! WOOOOO!!!!!!!!!:grin::grin:
Boca Griller's Prime are decent and not expensive... Beck Prime cooks a veggie burger on a mesquite smoke grill and it's the best in town if you want to go out and get one. Not that beef is something I don't enjoy, but it's good to eat healthy every once in awhile.
Maybe he's having a BBQ on the 4th and wants to be a good host and provide a vegetarian option? There are some good recipes online for burgers made from black beans and mushrooms. Let me see if I can find one that I've used
garden burger portabella amy's texas/california/all american burgers morningstar farms mushroom lovers morningstar farms black bean burger boca cheeseburger those are my favorites, ranked in order. the absolute best, most amazing veggie burger that exists is at cheesecake factory...even with their crazy huge, varied menu, i can never bring myself to order anything but the mushroom burger with the veggie patty. it's freaking heaven in yo mouf. also everything at hobbit cafe is awesome.
I usually buy the Boca brand, eat them with rice cheese and eat them on sized bread. I like Boca since it doesn't have any dairy or eggs in it unlike Morning Star. And since it's not manly to eat veggie burger apparently (not talking to you Raven), at least eat free range ground beef patties if you're going to eat the regular version. Way less fat.
You should check out Sunshine's Vegetarian Deli's veggie burger. Hands down the best vegetarian burger I have ever had, and I am most definitely NOT a vegetarian. Full disclosure, I have not visited this place since they changed their name from Sunfired but the reviews on yelp attest to their continued success. http://www.sunshineckls.com/restaurant/menu/
