I love these burgers! I've made a few different variations of them, and I've never been disappointed. Just be careful not to over-dehydrate these. They will become very hard if you're not careful.
Ingredients:
2 celery stalks, chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1/4 red onion, chopped
1/4 cup shredded carrot
1 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup brown flax seed meal
1/2 cup water
1 avocado (mashed)
1 tomato
lettuce leaves
onion slices
Preparation:
Grind the sunflower seeds into a powder in your food processor. Optionally, instead of doing all the chopping, you could throw the veggies in the food processor after the sunflower seeds are ground up to save time.
Put ground/chopped veggies and seeds in a large mixing bowl and add the flax meal. Add half the water and work the mixture with your hands. Add more water if the mixture is too crumbly. Add more flax meal if it gets too watery.
Dehydrate burgers for 6 hours on a lined dehydrator sheet at 105 degrees. Flip burgers and dehydrate until desired texture is achieved. Serve on Whole Wheat Onion Bagels, or use that recipe to make buns (bagels with no hole).
With "the works" - Put the burger on the bottom half of the bun, then spread mashed avocado on top. Add a slice of onion, a slice of tomato, and 1-2 lettuce leaves, then top of bun.

I can't wait to try this,it sounds so good.
2. Just made these earlier today
Just made these earlier today and had them for lunch with my kids. I thought they made such an excellent burger which we wrapped in lettuce along with some mustard, tomato and extra onion. Delicious! My kids even asked for more. I will certainly keep making them since they were well received by my 3 kids.
I used extra carrot and I did add salt to the burger mixture before dehydrating. They were probably only in the dehydrator for 4 - 4 1/2 hours.
Thanks so much for a great recipe!
