These Easy Marinated and Grilled Portobello Mushrooms are the go-to vegan substitute for several grilled meats, steaks, and burgers. This simple recipe teaches you how to make them packed with umami flavor without using too many ingredients or putting in too much effort! These mushrooms are incredibly versatile; serve them on skewers, over rice, on a burger, and more.
When mashed and mixed with other flavors it creates a texture that is unmatched by beans or tofu alone. This Tempeh Black Bean Burgers With Dill Sauce is perfected by mixing black beans and tempeh and it’s baked, not fried. Pair with the homemade creamy dill sauce for the perfect flavor combo!
Love spicy food? You will love these High Protein Jalapeno Black Bean Burgers. Each patty is packed with beans, onions, and garlic, plus spicy brown mustard, Sriracha, and jalapeños. These burgers are also freezer-friendly, so you can make a big batch and just freeze them for a later date.
4. Spicy Fried ‘Chicken’ Sandwich

The patty in these Spicy Fried “Chicken” Sandwiches is made from vital wheat gluten that has been cooked in vegan chicken broth, then dredged and fried in a spicy batter until crisp and golden. Serve this crispy patty with your favorite greens and a creamy sauce that’s addictively spicy.

2. Rhubarb Dream Bars
