MUSHROOM BURGERS WITH ALMONDS AND SPINACH
These delicious vegetarian patties have a great texture because of the almonds and bulgur. Like other vegetarian patties, they can be a little tricky to turn when you brown them. If they break apart, just patch them together.

Steps:
- Place the bulgur in a bowl with a little salt if desired. Cover with ½ cup hot water and leave for 20 to 25 minutes, until most of the water has been absorbed and the bulgur is soft. Drain through a strainer and squeeze out the water.
- Meanwhile, in a food processor fitted with the steel blade, grind the almonds coarsely.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add the mushrooms. When they begin to soften and sweat, turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes, until the mushrooms have softened. Add the garlic, thyme, salt, pepper and white wine, and continue to cook, stirring, until there is no more liquid in the pan, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, transfer to the food processor and process until very finely chopped.
- Return the pan to the heat and add the spinach, a handful at a time. Cook just until it wilts and remove from the heat. Transfer to a strainer and, with the back of a spoon, press out excess water. Add spinach to the food processor and process with the mushrooms and almonds until the ingredients are well blended. Scrape the mixture into a bowl, stir in the bulgur and egg (if using), and season to taste with salt and pepper. Form into patties. If there is time, cover and chill for 1 to 2 hours.
- Heat the remaining oil in a large, heavy skillet or on a griddle over medium heat, and brown the patties for 3 minutes on each side, being very careful when you turn them over. Don't worry if they fall apart; just patch them together. An offset spatula works well for turning them, and when you remove the patties from the pan, it helps if you place the bottom bun over the patty, slide the spatula underneath the patty and, with your hand on the bun, flip it over. Serve with the condiments of your choice.

MUSHROOM AND BEEF BURGERS
These hamburgers - cut through with roasted mushrooms - are inspired by the versions cooked by the chef Scott Samuel of the Culinary Institute of America. The recipe came to The Times in 2013, in Martha Rose Shulman's "Recipes for Health" column. They are here made of half beef, half roasted mushrooms, though Mr. Samuel went two parts meat to one part mushrooms. Either way, they are incredibly moist.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the beef, roasted mushroom base, onion, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, herbs, and egg. Form 6 to 8 patties and place them on a plate or a lightly oiled sheet pan. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Heat 1 or 2 large, heavy skillets over medium-high heat and add enough oil to lightly coat the bottom (about 1 tablespoon). When the pans are hot, add the patties and cook for 4 minutes on each side. Transfer to the parchment-lined sheet pan and place in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven, let sit for a couple of minutes, and serve.

- Cook the patties over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Serve the burgers on toasted buns with your favorite toppings. Some popular choices include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and avocado.
- For a healthier version of the burgers, use whole-wheat buns and low-fat cheese. You can also reduce the amount of oil used to cook the patties.
- These burgers can be made ahead of time and frozen for later use. Simply cook the patties according to the recipe and then let them cool completely. Place the patties in a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
