I purchased this product on deep discount, as my local grocer was discontinuing it.  Unfortunately, I can see why.  This “just add water” dry mix is supposed to magically transform into veggie burgers.  Alas, the dough was quite sticky and hard to work with.  Once I finally coerced them into patties, they did cook up easily, browning in just a few minutes per side. 

While the texture was fine, the flavor was bland and slightly bitter.  The ingredients listed dehydrated vegetables among the second ingredient, yet I couldn’t detect a single veggie … just flours and grains.  While this product was a disappointment, it worked fine as veggie burger crumbles atop our salads, masked by the other more flavorful components.

Yes, some Vegenaise, Lemony Dill Seasoning from the ladies at Vegetarian Express, and a dash of almond milk made for a smashing salad dressing (in seconds might I add!) that covered up the rather sad flavor of this product, for a wonderful lunchtime salad.

Where to Purchase: You can buy Nature's Burger in stores, or direct from the Fantastic Foods website.  However, if you do, I would also pick up a seasoning from Vegetarian Express and a jar of Vegenaise to improve the experience.
