  • Form the mixture with your hands into 2 patties and chill them in the fridge for at least 10 minutes.

Notes

  • If spice is your thing, toss in some chopped chipotle peppers or a bit of cayenne. Not enough for you? Serve these beauties with some zesty mayo.
  • To make these burgers vegan, swap out the egg for a flax egg (just mix one tablespoon of ground flaxseed with three tablespoons of water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes).
