The perfect veggie burger...

I am determined to find the perfect veggie burger recipe! I have tried many different recipes and have yet to find a go to recipe - there is always something missing.  My brother Chris and friend Aislinn came over last week and we made 3 different recipes at once so we could compare them.  Here are a few pictures from our recipe trial.  Aislinn is vegan so we opted to make the burgers vegan!

Recipes:
1) Our Perfect Veggie Burger - Oh She Glows
2)  Black Bean & Quinoa Burgers - Love & Lemons
3) Spicy Chickpea Veggie Burgers - Running on Real Food

All the burgers were yummy but I still haven't found "The One!" I will keep experimenting and putting my own spin on recipes and I will let you know when I have perfected it!
