Beyond Burger

We have been curious about the Beyond Burger for a while now and finally gave them a taste!

This is not your typical veggie burger. It looks and tastes like hamburger.

Being a vegetarian myself, I am going by Jim's word that they cooked just like real hamburgers, juice and all. They can also be grilled.

What are they made of? 
water, pea protein, canola oil, coconut oil, rice protein, natural flavors, cocoa butter, mung bean protein, methylcellulose, potato starch, apple extract, pomegranate extract, salt, potassium chloride, vinegar, lemon juice concentrate, sunflower lecithin, beet juice extract (to give it the look of meat).

Each one has 260 calories. The nutrition facts are excellent. I love that there are 4.0mg of iron (20% daily value). Being soy free and gluten free, they are also great for those with certain food allergies.

We topped ours with sauteed mushrooms and onions.

We both thoroughly enjoyed these! A notable comment Jim made is that it lacks the iron taste you get from a real burger since he prefers them rare. Otherwise they were perfectly scrumptious!

We purchased a package of 2 for $5.00. $2.50 a patty seemed a bit pricey in comparison to veggie burgers but we felt it is worth it as an occasional treat.

If you have been curious about this burger, I would definitely suggest giving it a try! I don't know if this product is available in other countries yet but I believe it is available across the US.

Stay safe and healthy.

Thank you for stopping by. ~Val
