White Bean Burger with Quick Ponzu Pickles

White Bean Ponzu Burgers with Quick Ponzu Pickles

We’ve all heard of black bean burgers, and they’re delicious! But how about white bean burgers? If you haven’t tried white bean burgers before, allow me to introduce you to a delicious recipe for White Bean Ponzu Burgers with Quick Ponzu Pickles.

This delicious Asian-inspired burger uses Marukan rice vinegar and Yuzu Ponzu in the quick pickles and Yuzu Ponzu in the sauce and in the burgers. It’s zesty, tangy, savory, and might I just say, one of the very best vegetarian burgers I’ve made!

Don’t be intimidated by making bean burgers – they take about as long as regular burgers to throw together, just with the addition of pulsing nuts and beans together to create the patties. Whether you’re vegetarian, cooking for those who are, or just want to add some fiber-rich, plant-based meals into your diet (Meatless Mondays, perhaps?) this burger is a great choice!
