Gotta love a lady that knows how to bite into a burger... properly :-) Nicely done, Shira Bocar

[@Tanias001]

Excellent recipe! Made it twice and got perfect results

[@CookingLessonsforDad]

That looks amazing! I love burgers and it is so nice they are healthy!

[@michellehasty1038]

Other than the cilantro, this looks so delicious!! I definitely would sub with parsley and maybe throw in basil since it's my fave. The finished burger with avocado and that dijonnaise made my mouth water!

[@cacao123451]

I made these today were very delicious!! Thank you!! 😋😋😋

[@fionajackson8002]

Thanks for sharing another great vegetarian recipe!

[@carjam49]

Thank you so much. I'll be checking out more of your videos, and I appreciate the written recipe.

[@a.j.3088]

You look like a much younger version of my son’s pediatrician. You actually sounded just like her when you said, “gorgeous!” That looks delicious. I’m definitely going to try it

[@hassanmir5463]

It's different and I should try seems so yummy at all.

[@PtolemyXVII]

This looks so delicious. I'll be making it this weekend !

[@haneulj.skykim5830]

Thank you for another great video! To make the pattie vegan, what would be good as a substitute for an egg?

[@katpui99]

Great tip on the ricer for the spinach. I’m going to try this recipe. Looks amazing!

[@mahri9022]

Facts people see a mother cook and think she’s a slave but really she is a hardworking and strong woman to even do her daily duties while pregnant truly amazing

[@jessicainthekitchenrecipes]

Tried this (subbed the egg) - was so delicious!!! Thank you!!

[@sarajacque66]

That looks so good! I'm gonna try it!

[@sandieyeomans9741]

Bet these are good, and I'm not a mushroom eater, but think I would really like this !

[@KafkameetsPlath]

This looks like my fav veggie burger by Dr. Praeger’s, his kale veggie burger it’s SOO good! I’ve always wanted to learn how to make it this looks so good!!

[@massielV25]

Nice video; looks so yummy 😁

[@carynmeyer3144]

When people don't know the difference between vegetarian and vegan... congrats on your pregnancy Shira, that vegetarian burger is very creative!

[@AnshRus]

Egg isn’t vegetarian

[@hadiavlogspakistaniyoutube5202]

Hello how are you great job recipe osome God bless you🌹❤🌼😊

[@kokytime7731]

*very tasty*

[@raedenika1]

Slight technical issue when I made the bulgar. I made the bulgar too ‘wet’ n then at first forgot the breadcrumbs which resulted n a goopier burger. After the first two I began to scratch my head why they were coming out like this! 🤔then it came to me!! 😂 I will try to make again and have more consistent results! After i added the breadcrumbs it pulled together and the flavor was still delicious and on point!! =don’t do what I did. Could you show next time how to make the bulgar? I think that would have helped me. I’m pretty sure your supposed to just cook it 1:2 ratio bulgar:water?? This could very well have been where I went wrong or that I didn’t bother to measure that day! TY! Love this recipe! 💕

[@davidbweiner]

To make it gluten-free, could I substitute cooked brown rice and GF breadcrumbs?

[@kirstinpiche]

Can you recommend a gluten free grain option instead of the bulger wheat?

[@donnajacksunn489]

Great video...where did u buy the masher

[@nq3950]

I made this with quinoa and it came out delish. I loved that the burgers stayed together the whole time. Thank you for the recipe!

[@janetttpark]

had to double check the date of this video - congratulations on the ?second? baby Shira! Sending

[@remonaalusi4634]

It's a amazing

[@iamURHO]

Doable? Check! Thank you so much. Although, I think Gordon would love like a ton more olive oil.

[@judiegarnett2644]

Congratulations!!! Please be mindful of your belly when working with the over.. We have a habit of for getting how round it becomes. Having burned mine at 9 months, pulling out something from the over!!

[@PN-sk3ve]

Awww, her baby belly makes her look so beautiful. =)

[@NalaShore]

Can I use portobello instead of shiitake??

[@helpfulnatural]

You probably could. If you use large portobello mushroom caps, you could just use that as your burger without any of the other ingredients. Remove the gills on the under side of the caps first as they hold a lot of water. Then just grill the mushroom caps as you would a burger made of meat.

[@sansskeleton5010]

I'm going to be real with you chief that's absolutely

[@remonaalusi4634]

So delouces healthy

[@shalimamb]

Remona Alusi delouces? What does it mean?

[@remonaalusi4634]

Good idea nice things

[@TheNY97]

You eat this if you want to be healthy not if you’re VEGAN. Stop complaining people she used 1 egg, if you’re not up for that substitute it with water then .

[@sumaya.mohamad]

❤️❤️❤️

[@squange20]

When cooking spinach, you don’t need to add so much water. The spinach wilts easily when the lid is on.

[@MarcoNoPolo]

Why do women become more beautiful when they are pregnant? One of life's mysteries I guess. (no disrespect)

[@nesstheshogun1839]

MarcoNoPolo I agree

[@SheekaKibaNejiItachi]

i think because they take prenatal vitamins which makes them healthier and glow 😂 from what i've heard. i haven't been pregnant before so i'm not 100%

[@rawan1047]

It's because during the 5th & 6th months, edtrogen levels are higher, causing them to have healthy & glowing hair, skin & nails

[@waynegilby4036]

Fak u

[@catalinareveco4486]

Not all of them, really. I guess you don't know many women.

[@ryantash4575]

Looks good but the real question is if the burger is still mushy in the middle? Most veggie burgers, unless you make them really thin, end up still mushy in the middle. So are yours sill mushy in the middle?

[@GyrlBlaque]

Do you make bulger wheat like rice or more like oatmeal

[@cristinarq82]

Hello Shira! Can i substitute bulgur with quinoa?

[@natividadcruz4339]

Great Information How To Cook Veggie Burger 💪🏻🇺🇸👻🧙🏻‍♂️⚔️

[@6155ish]

How long do you let the pinto beans cook?

[@globalpogotraveller]

How are eggs in this burgers considered vegetarian?

[@GyrlBlaque]

Do you cook burger wheat like rice

[@theoriginalamr]

What could you use other than egg to bind it?

[@carynmeyer3144]

Amy Reece flax seed or your favourite type of squash

[@SuperShiki666]

What should i use if i want to go eggless?

[@benmurphy5022]

And oil and eggs are healthy??

[@torriniolong5841]

What can i substitute for the egg? I'm vegan.

[@elianautrilla137]

Soaked chía seeds

[@emilyli3304]

replacement for bulgur?

[@cacao123451]

😋😋😋😋

[@sanjayharia3857]

What can we substitute the egg with?

[@metorphoric]

Sanjay Haria the egg is a binding agent here. Just soak bread crumbs instead . They should work. Or you can use a nice mustard

[@carynmeyer3144]

Flax seed or your favourite type of squash

[@jessicamcwilliams4933]

I call this a refried bean dip burger

[@alfcab]

That looks amazing but you just know it tastes like beans.

[@showelhossain2623]

You look beautiful and also the food ...

[@achsahnamala3161]

why is the music so loud? shes explaining the recipe so well. why mess it up with the music? makes the viewer irritated!

[@randa154]

طعميه

[@gladtidings4all]

I would delete the mushrooms and add bell peppers yellow/ red. Fine grated carrots, celery. Cumin powder as well. I do like the bulgur wheat.

[@skyerune]

Without the mushrooms, you will lose glutimates, which add the savory notes. I recommend replacing them with something that will add that quality.

[@richardwiediger7298]

did you say eggs as binder! I thought this was vegan.

[@yalcin4499]

What are we going to do when you give birth? :( Just bring the baby

[@yalcin4499]

Right on the nose

[@michellehasty1038]

Yes, just feed the baby and let him or her nap while you film!

[@Walksonthesky]

I had no idea she was pregnant. Congrats btw!

[@joshua2827]

oh no she dropped the pickle :(

[@kkgt6591]

what to use instead of eggs??

[@johncarlosahagun4065]

kkg _47 starch I guess

[@helpfulnatural]

You can use ground flaxseed mixed with water. It has a very similar texture to a beaten egg. After you stir the flax and water, let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.

[@yvonnevivo4761]

Thanks for the question, I was wondering the same too

[@carynmeyer3144]

Flax seed or favourite type of squash

[@VisualizeHealing]

Vegetarians do not eat egg. This is NOT a veggie burger. It sounds delicious except for the egg ruining it.

[@chrismoore9686]

This looks deelish, but sprouts? Really? I hear the 70's...

[@koko_hhhhhh]

Her hair reminds me of mulan's hair

[@Xspace360]

how is it a "Veggie" burger when you add egg? Love eggs, but you lost me on this one when you used it. Give me something 100% veggie.

[@back2paranormal]

Look for "vegan" recipes if you are looking for totally meat, milk, egg free. recipes :)

[@Music-ud7ex]

She's having a girl.....😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@Chassidy20]

Is this video old or is Shira pregnant again?

[@saraloveseveryone949]

I will try this recipe but I will modify it to my own liking; instead of using animal products I will use a blended squash which will give me the same consistency as eggs, to hold the mixture together;instead of mushrooms I will use marinated tofu and cauliflower;chick peas and lentils instead of the pinto beans 😋😋😋

[@nicoletti901]

ooh, that actually sounds very nice! i may try to make this with your substitutions. thank you!

[@saraloveseveryone949]

Yes; I have made many Veggie Burgers and I found that Lentils combined with chick peas,brown rice, quinoa and marinated tofu I marinate in a special vegan beef marinate (no animal products), taste just like well almost like Angus beef burger. When I went vegetarian 6 years ago Steak and Shakes Angus beef burgers was the hardest to give up. I spent almost 2 1/2 years trying to come up with a veggie burger that taste similar to Angus and after so many attempts I finally succeeded in my almost similar veggie Angus Beef Burger. I fed one to my mother 2 days ago and she could not tell the difference. I am not going to sit here and lie when I say that Angus from Steak and Shake still be calling my name from time to time to come back to the dark side🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@catalinareveco4486]

Nothing against your recipe, because it does sound delicious, but I don't think "modify" is the world you're looking for, when you're making something completely different.

[@chefmartinarizq]

. Applesauce Use 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce in place of one egg in most baking recipes. Some sources say to mix it with 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder. If all you have is sweetened applesauce, then simply reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe. Applesauce is also a popular healthy replacement for oil in many baked goods. 2. Banana Use 1/4 cup of mashed banana (from about half a banana) instead of one egg when baking. Note that this may impart a mild banana flavor to whatever you are cooking, which could be a good thing. 3. Flaxseeds Believe it or not, hearty-healthy flaxseeds can be used as an egg substitute! Simply mix 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseeds with 3 tablespoons of water until fully absorbed and viscous. Use in place of one egg. (You can use pre-ground flaxseeds or grind them yourself in a spice or coffee grinder.)

[@f.k.9617]

Sara, do you mind sharing the recipe? thanks

[@sanjayharia3857]

Why an egg when it is a veggie burger?

[@pineappleink]

Sanjay Haria Because veggie != Vegan

[@SheekaKibaNejiItachi]

Sarmishta Velury it's vegetarian, not vegan.

[@pineappleink]

SheekaKibaNejiItachi Eggs are considered vegetarian in the US. Technically speaking, vegetarian means the exclusion of meat and eggs aren't meat. Plus, eggs from most egg farms are unfertilized nowadays, so they aren't potential life.

[@Nocturne22]

It's a chicken's period, basically.

[@catalinareveco4486]

Veggie-something just means its base is vegetable, not that is vegan.

[@spirit4away]

so loong

[@Rai46149]

Yuck eggs

[@emilioflores3850]

that looks like the nasty patty from sponge bob

[@surelysuperior]

lets just call it an avocado sandwich with that much on.

[@radish45]

Congratulations on the baby but that looks like the nasty patty in the thumbnail

[@rayradiance666]

Are you pregnant again? Congrats!

[@ginnaricci4547]

👎

[@007Chakochi]

1. Too much work for a burger 2. You don’t squeeze water from cooked greens because the protein/vitamin is lost with it and makes it equal to paper. 3. You don’t add an egg or any animal product (including dairy) and call it a veggie burger

[@FlareonOW]

It says veggie(so vegetables instead of meat), not that it's supposed to be vegan.

[@skyerune]

"LOOK AT ME! I AM A VEGAN!"

[@alfcab]

If you'd limited your comment to 1 & 2 you'd be right. #3 just makes you obnoxious.

[@StopThePrejudice]

1. Sometimes you want to spend a long time on a nice meal. 2. In reality, there is much more nutrients that remains in cooked greens when it’s not over cooked and not just the liquid. I don’t think you realize that. 3. People can call this a veggie burger, it’s not a vegan burger. Vegetarians can eat animal products like egg and dairy #shocker

[@xxForgottenx]

Spinach is one of those greens that are much more healthier when cooked as opposed to uncooked/raw. What an embarrassment.. You have no clue what you are talking about.

[@tgwoolshire]

You can call it what you want to but there's no such thing as a veggie burger if it doesn't have meat it's not a burger therefore there's no such thing as a veggie burger what you have here is a salad sandwich

[@PETROLEUMBLOOD]

No, thanks.
