Crunchy Southwestern Sweet Potato Veggie Burgers

These Dr. Praeger #sweetpotato burgers are delicious (especially in the air fryer). 😋 These #veggie burgers are slightly sweet from the sweet potato and have a small southwestern kick. They have a lot of flavor and are delicious with #guacamole or avocado. These are also a much healthier option for the upcoming grilling months or those who want to stay away from the faux meats. I found these at Fresh Thyme for $4, which was a great value! #veganisnotscary #yum #ditchdairy #dairyfree #abillionlove

I love the veggie-forward burgers from Dr. Praeger's, so it was exciting to see a new patty from them! This crunchy patty promises a new texture that I enjoy! These are best in the air fryer, but unfortunately like all of their other veggie patties I've tried, they are mushy in the middle and do not hold together well. The outside did get crunchy, but the inside was what made it hard to hold together. Next time I'll try cooking it longer than directed and see if that makes a difference. I did enjoy the flavor. The sweet potato flavor is the most prominent and it went well with the usual burger toppings: Organicville mustard, Follow your Heart mayo, Daiya cheddar, Grillo’s Pickles, lettuce, and tomatoes. This patty isn't a great protein source, but it packs a lot of veggies. The ingredient list is long, but it's all vegetables and seasonings. It's cool that this is also gluten free! #burger #veggieburger #sweetpotato #glutenfree #airfryer #frozen #quickandeasy #sandwich #costco

I’ve noticed that my favorite gluten free Chik’n nuggets I previously reviewed are no longer being made (gluten free) by Dr. Praeger’s anymore. I’m unsure why. They were certainly a hit over here. But in spite of that, they’ve come up with some new veggie burgers. This happens to be one of two types of crunchy burger, where the outside has a coating of firm pieces of crispy brown rice. It’s an interesting concept, adding a textured contrast to a soft veggie burger. I did like the combination of veggies in this one: sweet potato, black beans, onions, spinach, turnip and collard greens. I didn’t really notice a barbecue flavor, but did feel a subtle kick of the spices used. Each box contains 4 individually wrapped burgers. The nutritional part that each (71g) burger provides is as follows: 160 calories from 7g of fat, 23g of carbohydrates and 3g of protein. For me, it would be even better if they could increase the protein content a bit more. I purchased these on sale last month from Whole Foods for around $4.49, normally it’s $5.69. You can also find these at ShopRite for $5.29. #sweetpotato #potatolover #eatyourveggies #eatyourgreens #spinach #collardgreens #turnipgreens #burger #veggieburger #blackbeans #oats #barbecuesauce #newproductalert #glutenfree #senzaglutine #singluten #glutenfrei #sansgluten #glutenfreevee
