This broccoli and sweet potato burger is not only a delicious vegetarian option, it is also grain free. Instead of using traditional burger buns (or even a gluten-free alternative), this dish from Tasty Yummies incorporates a lettuce wrap. This recipe was made for people with dietary restrictions, allowing them to also get in on the barbecue fun this summer.
The lettuce wrap veggie burgers are also topped with a delectable cilantro sauce. To make your own patties at home, you will need ingredients such as broccoli, sweet potatoes, onion, flaxseeds, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Food blogger Beth suggests using coconut oil for greasing the pan for bonus health points, and recommends toppings like avocado, red or green onion, sprouts and tomato slices for your sweet potato burger.
