This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Real Salt! All opinions and text are 100% mine. Thank you for supporting brands that help to support Jessica in the Kitchen! These burgers. I tell you, being a food blogger is a funny thing because one second you think you’ve found your new favourite recipe, and then the next week that’s changed. It’s safe to say that these are my current favourite veggie burgers. I have really high veggie burger standards, so that’s saying a lot. I want you to make these burgers, but in order to truly experience them, I want you to make them with this amazing Real Salt Garlic Salt, the world’s most amazing slaw, and this incredibly addictive vegan chipotle slaw. Let’s get into these, shall we?
When I attended the Everything Food Conference back in May of last year, I got the chance to connect with Real Salt and I’ve had a pretty amazing relationship with this company since then. They sent me their products to try and it’s an understatement to say I was head over heels. The Mr. and I kind of just moved all other salt products way to the back of the pantry and placed these prominently at the front. I’ve even been using less garlic when I use Real Salt‘s Garlic Salt. Me – garlic queen! So when the opportunity to collaborate came, I was beyond excited to partner with them. These burgers are a true testament to highlighting all the greatness that comes from pure, natural ingredients mixed together and presented in a truly fantastic veggie burger. One of the reasons I loved Real Salt was that it ACTUALLY caked, you know, like salt that doesn’t have preservatives?! It’s 100% real so you have to shake it on the counter a bit every time, which honestly enhances the experience every time for me. There’s no greater feeling for me than knowing that everything you’re eating is coming from the best possible natural source. Anyway, aside from my love of Real Salt, my love for these burgers is Real Too (see what I did there?)!
This burger idea came to me because of my love of cauliflower, my love of quinoa, and my love of veggie burgers. It’s really that simple. I’m always looking for new ways to make veggie burgers, and these cauliflower burgers were perfectly in theme with the upcoming Fall season. They are so simple to make and if you follow me on Snapchat you saw that for yourself. I combined roasted cauliflower, quinoa, flax eggs, oats, garlic salt, parsley, red onion and black pepper. Mixed it all up, formed patties, and pan fried them in a bit of coconut oil. Simple and so delicious. The garlic salt is a real powerhouse seasoning. The fact that it’s one of the only seasonings in this recipe speaks a lot to that. You all know I love a well seasoned burger, and a teaspoon and a half of that really did the job. It may seem like a lot, but since it isn’t just salt don’t worry, you aren’t overloading your burgers with salt. It’s a great mix of garlic and salt and really shines through in these burgers.
I love a great loaded veggie burger, so to complement these cauliflower burgers I added my all time favourite slaw my Kale Cabbage Slaw, and my Chipotle Crema. You can load it even more if you want with some more greens, onions and tomatoes. These burgers will leave you satisfied, happy and filled with tons of nutritious and delicious ingredients. Also: 5.6 grams protein per burger, about 133 calories and 4.8 grams fibre. Win, win. Best part? They freeze perfectly. They’re in my freezer right now and it’s as simple as reheating them in the pan just like any store-bought veggie burger. They’re actually begging me to reheat them for lunch, so I’ll see you later, friends. Let’s toast to these cauliflower burgers when next we see each other.
