A little bit of spice and sweet potato get on famously in a meatless burger. As much as we love flame-kissed food, this burger is better flipped in a frying pan vs the grill.
Toppings (optional): Smokin’ BBQ Sauce, sliced red onion, sliced tomato, pickles, mayonnaise
- Slice yam in half lengthwise. Place in Multipurpose Steamer. Cover; microwave on high for 6 min or until tender.
- While yam is cooking, drain and rinse beans. Using a box grater, grate onion over a paper towel. Gently squeeze to remove excess liquid.
- When yam is cooked, add beans to steamer. Using Ground Meat Separator, mash. There should be a few beans left whole. Add onion, quinoa, hemp hearts, and seasoning. Using a wooden spoon or your hands, mix until well combined.
- Divide mixture into four patties, about 1” thick.
- In a non-stick fry pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add patties; cook 4–5 min per side, or until browned on both sides and heated through.
- To assemble, make four sets of two stacked lettuce leaves. Top each stack with a burger; add additional toppings, as desired. Top with remaining lettuce leaves.
