Vegan? Here's how you can make meatless burgers

Just because you’ve given up meat doesn’t mean you can’t have burgers.

A recent Pinas Sarap episode had two plant-based and organic restaurants show how they make their vegan burgers.

Susi, at Burgos Circle in Bonifacio Global City, suggests using a mixture of black beans, brown rice, and beetroot as a beef patty replacement.

Wholesome Table meanwhile uses a mixture of quinoa, zucchini, and Portobello mushroom.

If making vegan burgers sound too daunting, you can swing by these restaurants instead:
