Common vegan burger substitutes

In the world of vegan burgers, you’ve got a pretty wide range of choices. Brands like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods are a hit because they offer that chewy, meat-like texture and flavour which can be really appealing, especially if you’re just transitioning away from eating meat. It’s a great option for those who want to reduce their meat intake but still crave that traditional burger experience.

Then, there are burgers made purely from veggies, grains, and legumes. Legumes like black beans and chickpeas are popular for their high protein content, providing a satisfying chewiness that mimics the texture of ground meat. Tempeh and tofu, made from soy, are also favoured for their protein density and adaptability in texture and flavour.

Grains and vegetables, like quinoa and mushrooms, contribute both texture and nutrient. Mushrooms, for instance, are favoured for their umami flavour, which enhances the meatiness of the burger without the animal products. Other veggies, like cauliflower and sweet potato, are also popular options for making creative vegan patties.
