Who won the sweet potato recipe contest?




Maple Sweet Potato Pecan Burger From Nikki Haney of thetolerantvegan.com.

3 medium (about 1 1/2 pounds) sweet potatoes
1/4 cup uncooked quinoa
2 tablespoons vegan buttery spread or butter
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1 cup chopped kale
1 small sweet onion, very coarsely chopped
Freshly ground black pepper
4 sandwich buns





Transfer burgers to buns and top with the onion mixture.

Yield: 4 servings.

If I didn't need one before, I need a goto vegetarian burger now. Sounds fantastic to me. Can't wait to try it.

although it sounds terrific, the recipe above is not actually vegan as it is referred to multiple times in the article. Butter is not a vegan ingredient, substitute olive oil for the butter.

It says Vegan butter or regular butter. Read it before making dumb comments

Sweat Potato burger recipe and now name calling. It's just a recipe and likely a good one. Get some protein.

Thanks, Anon. 7:32. However, there are butter substitutes that are vegan products, as the recipe notes. So it works for vegans, vegetarians or people who are trying to eat healthier.
