How people cook with it
These veggie burgers are a versatile ingredient for a variety of meals. They can be enjoyed in classic burger preparations or incorporated into other dishes.
- On a bun with toppings
- Crumbled into salads
- In a wrap
- As a side dish
To prepare, cook the frozen veggie burgers directly from the freezer. They can be pan-fried in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat until heated through and browned on both sides. Alternatively, they can be baked in an oven preheated to 375°F (190°C) for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through. Grilling is also an option, but care should be taken as they can be more delicate than meat burgers. Ensure they are thoroughly heated before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike traditional meat burgers, these veggie burgers are made entirely from plant-based ingredients. They offer a different texture and flavor profile, often with a softer bite and a taste influenced by the vegetables and spices used in their creation. Their cooking times can also vary.

How to keep the rest
Keep the remaining veggie burgers frozen in their original packaging. Once thawed, they should be cooked promptly and not refrozen. Store them in the freezer compartment of your refrigerator to maintain freshness and quality until ready for use.
