Plant-Based Pickled Onion Burger 

Yield: 2 servings 

Prep time: 10 minutes 

Cook time: 3-5 minutes 

Why we love it:  Beyond Meat is super easy to cook and if you don't have a grill, don't worry. These plant-based burgers taste best cooked with a dash of olive oil in a large pan. This recipe only takes 15 minutes to make. 

Make it for: a backyard barbecue and serve the burger with sweet potato fries. Or, make it for your loved one who wants to transition to a plant-based diet.
