Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Servings 2 Burgers

Ingredients
  

Veggie Burgers

  • 2 Dr. Praeger's Sweet Heat Veggie Burgers
  • 2 Whole Wheat or Gluten-Free Burger Buns
  • Cheddar Slices or Vegan Cheese
  • Arugula

Apple Slaw

  • 2 Cups Store-Bought Slaw Mix
  • 1 Gala or Honeycrisp Apple
  • 2 Tbs Chopped Parsley
  • 1/4 Cup Chopped Scallions
  • 1/4 Cup Vegan Mayo
  • 1 Tbs Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1 Tsp Maple Syrup
  • 1/4 Tsp Black Pepper

Instructions
 

  • To start, make the apple slaw. Chop the apples, skin on, into thin matchsticks. Mix with the other slaw ingredients, and stir until everything is evenly coated.
  • Put slaw in the refrigerator for at least a half hour so that the flavors can really meld.
  • While slaw is marinating, prepare the veggie burgers according to the box instructions (though I would recommend grilling them, the smoky flavor is excellent here).
  • Layer your burgers - add on the warm, cooked veggie burgers, a layer of cheddar or vegan cheese, then add on the slaw and arugula, as much as you like.
  • Serve with french fries or tater tots, if you'd like.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • I recommend using Dr. Praeger's Sweet Heat Beet veggie burgers here, but your fave veggie burger would do great as well. (But the beet tastes so good with the slaw, and Dr. Praeger's is available in most major supermarkets! I do recommend seeking it out!)
  • If you don't want to use store-bought slaw mix, sub in 1 cup finely sliced red or green cabbage, and 1 cup carrots.
