The last serving of my herb potato salad from Earth Fare grocery. And my hamburger that's plant based! However the thin whole wheat bread didn't make it through the whole sandwich, and I used my fork to eat the second half! I didn't see any reason to purchase a package of buns for the two patties I bought. The second patty was eaten plain, with various side dishes!
All the oil around the patties came from them, in my non-stick skillet. And I found pressing down on the patties to make them bigger, thinner, was a good idea. All the impossible burgers I've had at restaurants were thin and wide!
Yes, there's lots of fat grams in each one! But the taste is definitely of a real piece of hamburger!
This is what I made my sandwich from..as well as a bit of Veganaise. A flatter piece of lettuce and a bigger slice of tomato might have helped...as well as a real bun! I found it interesting that the 20 grams of protein was offset by 18 grams of fat. Many plant-based eaters scoff at that and say it's worse for you than a real hamburger. But hey, pea protein didn't mean killing a cow!
