Johnny's Raw Vegan Mushroom Burger v2

Johnny's Raw Vegan Mushroom Burger

Tools You'll Need:

• Food Processor
• Dehydrator
• Blender (I use a Magic Bullet)

Ingredients You'll Need:

• Pepper (I used a Green one, you choose) - 1 Whole Pepper
• Flax Meal (or get flax seeds and pulverize them) - 1/2 Cup
• Mushroom - 1 Package (8oz)
• Walnuts - 1/3 Cup
• Onion - One Small Onion
• Jalapeño - 1 Pepper (skip if you don't like spicy)
• 1 Celery - 1 Whole Stalks
• Olive Oil - 1 Tbsp
• Spices of your choice (I used garlic, cayenne, pepper, and onion)

STEP 1: Prep Mushrooms

1. Clean the mushrooms.
2. Dehydrate for 2 hours.
3. Chop in Food Processor.

Mushrooms dehydrated and processed

STEP 2: Set Binding

1. Toss Flax Meal and Green Pepper into blender. Blend.
2. Let sit for about 10 minutes. It will thicken considerably. If too watery, add flax.

The Flax and Green Pepper Binder hold the Burgers together (make sure it's not watery!)

STEP 3: Make Filler

1. Toss Walnuts, Onion, Jalapeño, Celery, Oil, and Spices into Food Processor.
2. Add Mushrooms.
3. Process until combined.

The delicious veggie filler

STEP 4: Form Burgers

1. On your Dehydrator Sheet, form 5 burgers and flatten them out so that they are not too fat. I didn't do this in version 1, and the texture in the middle wasn't as good as the outside.
2. Dehydrate for 3-4 hours.
3. Flip Burgers.
4. Dehydrate for 2 hours.

STEP 5: Eat!

1. I served these on a leaf of Boston Lettuce with Cucumber, Yellow Pepper, Avocado, and Homemade Salsa. Trick them out any way you'd like.
2. Enjoy!
