Top Five Reasons to Feast on Veggie Burgers at Memorial Day Festivities

5. The possibilities are endless

With available flavors like, Chipotle Black Bean, California Turk’y Burger and the Mushroom Lover’s Burger, you will never get burger boredom.

4. You can pack them in a cooler without worry

According to the food safety info on Burgermaker.com you need to keep ground beef between 34 and 36 degrees Fahrenheit to reduce the risk of food borne illness. Veggie burgers can defrost without concern.

3. They are a nutritional rock star

The Morningstar Farms Grillers Vegan Burgers  (Pictured above and below) are a low calorie, high fiber, protein packed meal that tastes like you nabbed it from your favorite burger joint.

• 100 calories
• 4g fiber
• 12g protein

Morningstar Farms Grillers Vegan Veggie (2.5g fat per serving) have  84% less fat  than  a regular ground beef burger (71g) containing 15g fat per serving.

2. Changing the World Without Breaking a Sweat

Every  time I have gone to a BBQ and brought veggie burgers, people have asked to try them. People who would never bring a veggie burger in to their home until you arrived with them in your cooler, tried them and loved them. It is like accidental activism.

The Number One Reason to Feast on Veggie Burgers at Your Memorial Day Festivities:

Nothing was harmed in the making of your burger. You can enjoy the succulent flavor of a flame grilled burger with all the fixins, and spend the rest of your day basking in the joy of making a great choice. Your heart will feel full, your belly will feel full (but not greasy) and you will know that you had a hand in changing the world, one meal at a time.
