Baking is our preferred method of cooking frozen patties.

Preheat oven to 425, splash a bit of oil on both sides of the patty and bake 10-15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Let burgers rest 5 minutes before serving.

OTHER IDEAS

Reverse the situation and make the veggie burger the topping itself. Chop patty and sprinkle it over any salad to add protein and extra fiber.

Pickled onions make everything taste better

Veggie nachos: crumble patty on top of tortilla chips, add plenty of cheese and bake. Top with pico de gallo, guacamole, lime, cilantro, pickled onions or jalapenos, etc.

Although we probably shouldn’t say it… Bacon is delicious on veggie burgers.
