A veggie burger is a meatless alternative to a traditional hamburger, typically made from a variety of vegetables, grains, legumes, and spices. Common ingredients include black beans, chickpeas, lentils, quinoa, and various vegetables like carrots and bell peppers. These ingredients are often combined and formed into a patty, which can be grilled, baked, or pan-fried. Veggie burgers are popular among vegetarians and vegans, as well as those looking to reduce meat consumption for health or environmental reasons. They can be served on a bun with toppings such as lettuce, tomato, and condiments, similar to a regular burger.
