Veggie Burgers Every Which Way: Fresh, Flavorful and Healthy Vegan and Vegetarian Burgers - Plus Toppings, Sides, Buns and More

Lukas Volger

Whether you already subsist on veggie burgers, enjoy them occasionally, or ardently wish there was an alternative to the rubbery, over-processed frozen burgers sold in cardboard boxes, Veggie Burgers Every Which Way is the book for you--one you'll want to cook from over and over again.

Author Lukas Volger, who has been making and eating veggie burgers since he was a teenager, has assembled more than thirty unique, delicious veggie burger recipes, including:
  • Red Lentil and Celery Root Burgers
  • Tofu and Chard Burgers
  • Baked Falafel Burgers
  • Thai Carrot Burgers
  • Sweet Potato Burgers with Lentils and Kale
  • Corn Burgers with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Goat Cheese

More than half the burger recipes are vegan and/or gluten-free, as are many of the extras, which include buns, sides, toppings, and condiments. Everyday ingredients ensure that all the burgers and extras are a breeze to assemble. The wide variety of tastes and flavors will excite every palate and suit every craving and occasion. And dozens of mouthwatering photographs leave no doubt that great-tasting veggie burgers can look spectacular, too!

Praise for this book

"Vegans and vegetarians (and others eating meatless) often resort to cooking frozen veggie burgers out of a box . . . [with Veggie Burgers Every Which Way], you can whip up the real deal: great-tasting colorful homemade variations with fresh produce, whole grains, beans, rice, bread crumbs, spices, and herbs. They will be as good as the ingredients that go into them . . . Appealing topping, side, dressing and bun options are included, too."--Los Angeles Daily News

"One of Volger's best veggie burgers combines a variety of mushrooms and barley, combining foresty and nutty flavors you'd find in a wintertime wild mushroom soup . . . Try going back to eating one of those frozen soy burgers after that."--The Oregonian

"Volger's excellent new book, Veggie Burgers Every Which Way, should not be thought of as just for vegetarians . . . it is the variety and creativity of the recipes that makes this new cookbook stand out.
