Big Mouth Spicy Veggie Burgers

Instructions
Spicy Veggie Burger Mix
- Wash sweet potatoes and cut in quarters. Add to steamer and cook until soft through center and mashable. Allow to cool slightly and remove skins.
- Add sweet potato to large bowl and mash until smooth. Add remaining ingredients and stir well to combine.
- Form mixture into burger patties using about 3/4 to 1 cup of mixture per patty for ‘Big Mouth’ burgers.*
Caramelized Red Onion
- In a large skillet, melt unsalted butter and heat olive oil over medium low heat. Layer onion slices, sprinkling each layer with kosher salt.
- Cook for about 30 minutes until onions have turned a rich brown color.
Big Mouth Spicy Veggie Burgers
- In a non stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil over medium low heat. Cook patty on both sides for 5 minutes until crispy on the outside and hot through center. About 1 minutes before burger is finished cooking, add caramelized red onions and goat cheese to the top of the patty so it will melt slightly.
- In a small bowl, whisk together sriracha and mayonnaise. Spread on both sides of a large toasted burger bun, add the burger patty with caramelized red onions and goat cheese.
Notes
*For smaller burger sizes, use 1/2 cup of spicy veggie burger mix.
*If flaxseed meal is unavailable, unseasoned breadcrumbs can be substituted.
