Worlds Best Beet Burger

I love veggie burgers, however, they have to be made right in order to taste delicious. Many veggie burgers are dry and have a "cardboard" taste. Beet burgers, on the other hand, are moist and have a more earthy taste. When combined with the right ingredients, they are the best tasting veggie burgers with a great texture.
