I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but I actually really enjoyed these burgers. The broccoli was cooked perfectly and didn't overpower the other flavors. The cheese was melted and gooey, and the burgers were cooked to perfection.

I wasn't a big fan of these burgers. The broccoli and cheese filling was too overpowering, and the burgers were overcooked. The spicy sweet potatoes were also too dry.

I liked these burgers, but I thought they were a bit too greasy. The broccoli and cheese filling was good, but the burgers themselves were a bit bland. The spicy sweet potatoes were also a bit too spicy for my taste.

I had high hopes for these burgers, but I was disappointed. The broccoli was overcooked and mushy, and the cheese was barely melted. The spicy sweet potatoes were also too dry. I wouldn't make these burgers again.

These burgers were good, but not great. The broccoli was a bit too crunchy for my liking, and the cheese didn't melt all the way. The spicy sweet potatoes were also a bit too spicy for me.
