1/2 cup cooked white rice
1/4 teaspoon chili powder

Use a variety of vegetables: Get creative with your veggie burger by incorporating a mix of vegetables such as grated carrots, chopped mushrooms, or roasted sweet potatoes. This will not only add flavor but also boost the nutritional value.
Convenience of canned beans: Utilize the convenience of canned beans to provide protein and texture to your burger. Remember to drain and rinse them thoroughly before adding them to the mixture.
Maintain the right moisture level: Ensure that the burger mixture is moist enough to form patties without being too wet. Adjust the moisture by adding water or vegetable broth if it's too dry or breadcrumbs if it's too wet.
Chill the patties before cooking: Improve the texture and binding of the patties by refrigerating them for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help them hold together during the cooking process.
Cook on a non-stick surface: Prevent sticking by cooking the patties on a non-stick surface, such as a non-stick skillet or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Avoid overcooking: Cook the patties until they are nicely browned on the outside and heated through on the inside. Overcooking can result in dry and tough burgers, so keep a close eye on them and aim for about 3-4 minutes per side.
Customize your toppings: Personalize your veggie burger by adding your favorite toppings. Consider options like avocado, grilled onions, or a dollop of spicy mayo to enhance the flavor and texture.
Get creative and enjoy experimenting with different combinations to create your own signature veggie burger that suits your taste preferences.
