This quinoa and sweet potato burger recipe from the Cooking Quinoa blog makes a fantastic meal for those who are looking for an alternative for some of the most important components that makes up a traditional burger, namely the patties and condiments.
In addition to a base of quinoa and sweet potato, the healthy burger recipe is bound together with ingredients like garlic, ground flax seeds, quinoa, pumpkin seeds and spices that really pack a nutritional punch. Although the veggie patties are already packed with flavor, to enhance the dish that much more, Cooking Quinoa suggests sandwiching a savory avocado cilantro yogurt sauce between two patties, which is also loaded with tasty ingredients like onion, garlic, fresh herbs plus a healthy sprinkling of salt and pepper.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- The popularity of plant-based diets and protein substitutes creates an opportunity for companies to create unique, nutritious and tasty burger alternatives.
- Multigrain Patties

- Homemade Condiments
- As consumers look for healthier, homemade options, there is an opportunity for companies to create and sell healthier condiments that pair well with alternative burger options.
