Lentil, Walnut, and Pecan Bootylicious Burgers

Yes, I call these burgers bootylicious because after a good glute workout, these will be satisfactory and build up your booty or whatever muscle you would like to build. These burgers are flavorful, vegan, and delicious. The texture is amazing. They can also be frozen for later use. Simply reheat in the pan or oven. They pair perfectly with my Beautiful Bun recipe.

You can also chop these burgers up and throw them into tacos or a burger salad. Your booty will thank you. The oats bind everything together, and the mushrooms provide these burgers with an amazing texture. The flavors in these burger patties are outstanding. Let’s get to it.
