And Dave barely had a taste of it…it was just this nut butter monster slathering it on toast, tortillas, a cookie (ohmigosh)…really anything.

Healthy Veggie Burger with only 6 Ingredients

April 8, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

healthy veggie burger with only 6 ingredients

This healthy veggie burger packs a punch of nutrients including tons of fiber into one tasty package. I thought this recipe was so interesting since one of the main ingredients is the leftover pulp from your juicing excursions. Of course you don’t need to have juice pulp…it would just add some nice flavor and fiber. Woot.
