Even though the preparation for this meal seems time-consuming on a busy night, it's so worth it. The recipe will leave you with plenty of leftovers so you won't have to do any cooking the next night. These also beat the veggie burgers from the freezer section. -Amber Massey, Argyle, Texas

I've tried a lot of veggie burger recipes, but this one is by far the best. The burgers are moist and flavorful, and they don't fall apart on the grill.
