egg

🥗Healthier: flaxseed meal

💰Cheaper: applesauce

Flaxseed meal is a great binder and reduces cholesterol.

breadcrumbs

🥗Healthier: oats

💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Oats provide fiber and are gluten-free.

burger buns

🥗Healthier: whole grain buns

💰Cheaper: store-brand buns

Whole grain buns add nutrients.

black beans

🥗Healthier: canned beans

💰Cheaper: dried beans

Dried beans are more affordable and can be cooked in bulk.

In a food processor, add black beans, roasted mushrooms, green onions, cumin, dried parsley, and garlic.

Pulse the mixture in the food processor, being careful not to overprocess to avoid a mushy texture.

Transfer the mixture from the food processor bowl into a larger bowl.

Add the remaining half of the roasted mushrooms for texture.

Incorporate wheat germ as a thickener and nutritional yeast as another thickener.

Check the consistency by using your hands; if it sticks too much, add more thickener.

Form the mixture into patties.

Fry the patties in a frying pan until golden brown on each side.

Prepare the burger buns by spreading mustard on the bottom and adding lettuce.

Place the cooked burger patty on the bun, then add slices of tomato, pickles, and ketchup on top.
