This was the very first recipe that I ever came up with. It combines beets (for sweetness) with mushrooms (for funghi-powered-nutrition) into a really tasty veggie burger.

Ingredients

2 beet, grated
1 cup mushrooms, chopped
1 Tbsp onion, finely diced
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried thyme, optional
1 Tbsp nutritional yeast, optional
1 Tbsp tamari, or soy sauce optional - add sea salt if not using
1 Tbsp flaxseed, ground

Instructions

Grate the vegetables, or pulse in a food processor or blender until they're in very small chunks.
Mix in the seasonings and ground flax, and let sit for a few minutes until the flax absorbs some of the liquid of the veggies and starts to bind.
Form into burger shapes, and put on a baking tray.
To bake: put in the oven at 350 F for about 30 minutes.
To dehydrate: put in a dehydrator at 110 F for about an hour.

Notes

Serve on top of greens, a bun, or small toasts. Top with freshly made pesto and garnish with fresh herbs.
