High Protein Vegan Burger
Something many people worry about when transitioning to a more plant based diet is whether they’ll be consuming enough protein.
These tasty tofu and chickpea burgers contain 12+ grams of protein per patty as well as plenty of fiber, energizing carbohydrates and immune boosting spices. The burgers have the most incredible texture, are bursting with fresh flavors and go perfectly in a seeded bun with a side of homemade potato wedges
