To buy
- 4 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 fresh lime
From your shelf
- 2 patties quinoa plant-based veggie burgers (Morningstar Farms)
Staples
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- Make the slaw while the burgers cook. Toss 4 cups shredded cabbage into a bowl with 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and the juice of 1 fresh lime, divided into two equal portions. Set the bowl aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, lay 2 plant-based veggie burgers into the pan and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until browned on the first side.
- Flip the burgers and cook for another 5 to 7 minutes on the second side, until the exterior is browned and cooked through, while the slaw continues to wilt.
Note Swap cabbage for shredded carrot or beet if you prefer. Leftovers keep in an airtight container for two days; reheat gently or eat the burger cold with slaw on the side. Serve on toasted buns with the slaw piled on top, or eat the burger and slaw as separate components if one bowl feels less crowded.
