This Earth Day Burger Is Completely Vegan

by vegabytes

As BBQ season picks up, Earth Day is a good moment to rethink what goes on the grill. This Earth Day burger keeps the format people already enjoy but swaps in a plant-based option. It shows how small changes can shift everyday meals without losing familiarity. You still get a stacked burger, toasted bun, and classic toppings, just with a different base.

The burger itself is quick to cook and easy to assemble. The patty cooks in minutes and pairs with lettuce, pickles, and a slice of vegan cheese. Each serving delivers a solid amount of protein and fiber, which helps turn it into a proper meal rather than just a light option. It’s straightforward and fits into a regular dinner routine.

The dill-sriracha relish adds something extra. Blended white beans give it a thicker texture, while pickles, dill, and chili bring sharpness and heat. Add some homemade sweet potato fries to round everything out with a crisp side that works well with the softer burger and sauce.

This Earth Day burger works for spring meals, casual BBQs, or quick dinners at home. It’s easy to repeat and simple to scale up for more people.

Ingredients

Burgers
  • 1 pack Redefine Premium Burgers defrosted
  • 2 burger buns
  • 1 head of gem lettuce
  • 6–8 pickle slices
  • Sliced vegan cheese
High-protein burger relish
  • 30 ml ketchup
  • 15 ml vegan mayo
  • 5 ml sriracha or to taste
  • 10 g chopped dill
  • 1 pickle finely chopped
  • Chopped shallot
  • 50 g cooked white beans
Sweet potato fries
  • frozen sweet potato fries
  • 15 ml oil
  • Pinch smoked paprika & dried mixed herbs
  • Salt & pepper

Instructions

Make the sweet potato fries:

  • Heat oven to 200°C. Toss sweet potato fries with oil, salt, pepper, smoked paprika and dried mixed herbs. Roast for 20–25 minutes, turning once.

Make the dill–sriracha burger relish:

  • Blend white beans until completely smooth. Mix with ketchup, mayo, sriracha, dill, chopped pickles and diced shallot. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Always toast the buns: it improves flavour and protects against sogginess.
  • Let the patties rest 1 minute: they stay juicier and hold together better.
  • Spread relish on both sides of the bun: for that proper burger-shop feel.
