Vegetarian Peapo-Burger #5FIX, 5-Ingredient Fix Contest Entry The Vegetarian Peapo-burger is a combination of black eye (pea)s and (po)tatoes, hence the name Peapo I wanted to try something different than the traditional black bean burger so I thought of using black eye peas for a change I usually use mashed cauliflower for a veggie burger base, but instead I decided to substitute mashed potatoes What I like about this recipe is that it is simple and does not require a blender or food processor, just a spoon/fork for prepping the recipe Vegetarian Peapo-Burger came out of my quest to discover a healthy meat-less burger recipe that’s low sodium, low fat, no cholesterol, high in both iron and fiber, gluten free , has great texture (won’t crumble), and absolutely positively, delicious! Tip: Please remove as much water as possible from the potatoes and black eye peas in order to extract excess moisture , Never would have tried potatoes and peas in this way A great, tasty alternative to meat , this dish is a good options to the usual black bean burger, I like the simplicity of the recipe and that is has lots of fiber in it, which means you don’t need to eat a lot of them to fill full This will be one of my go to recipes when I need a simple recipe that easy to fix Thank you llwilson_88
