    Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burgers include Something for Everyone

    36
    By Alisa Fleming on August 19, 2020 Dairy-Free Fresh & Frozen Entree Reviews, Product Reviews

    Updated! Nobody does dairy-free vegetable-based patties like the sensible Dr. Praeger. With no shortage on options, Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burgers include TEN TWELVE FIFTEEN varieties, all made without a drop of milk or speck of cheese. They’re even egg-free and vegan-friendly.

    Tasting Notes for Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burgers

    All of the Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burgers that we’ve tried to date got the veggie burger salad treatment, but these very soft and tender patties would also add nice flavor to any sandwich with a burger bun, pita, or simply two slices of your favorite bread. And we have actually tried a couple of them in a bun.

    Super Greens Veggie Burgers (gluten-free)

    I simply LOVE the ingredients in these things – they’re like a salad in a burger! If you’re looking for a meaty vegan burger, then this isn’t it. But if you love true variation and wholesome ingredient veggie burgers, these tender patties are worth a try. These lightly crispy on the outside, very soft on the inside, potato-y patties are visibly spiked with generous amounts of collards, kale and other greens. I really enjoyed the pleasant  but mild flavor of these Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burgers as they fit with so many flavor profiles – curry, peanut sauce, tomato sauce, aioli, etc. I even paired them with a flavorful Provencal mustard on lettuce veggie burger bites. The only downfall is that these patties are quite soft in the middle.

    Dr. Praeger's Veggie Burgers Reviews & Info - all FIFTEEN varieties are dairy-free, egg-free, vegan, and nut-free! Includes many certified gluten-free varieties.Ingredients: textured pea protein, mustard greens, collard greens, turnip greens, expeller pressed canola oil, swiss chard, onions, apples, kale, spinach, cooked quinoa (quinoa, water), potato flakes, water, parsley, arrowroot powder, ginger, rice starch, garlic, oat fiber, sea salt, spices, cayenne pepper powder

    Nutrition (per burger): 160 calories, 8g fat, 11g carbs, 4g fiber, 0g sugars (includes 0g added sugars), 10g protein.*

    Kale Veggie Burgers (gluten-free)

    These trendy gems were released just before the summer of 2014, and they have become a staple in the veggie burger world. They actually aren’t overly intense in kale, which I like, but do contain an amazing list of vegetable and grain ingredients that starts with quinoa, brown rice, and millet. The Kale Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burgers are still very soft (not sturdy enough for grilling), but less tender than the Super Greens and California Gluten Free Veggie Burgers. The flavor is excellent, very deep and onion-y with just the right amount of salt. The kale is ever-present and tasty, but not the least bit bitter. As a fan of vegetables and whole grains, I truly enjoyed these patties.

Includes many certified gluten-free varieties.Ingredients: kale, pea protein, expeller pressed canola oil, water, spinach, onions, sweet potatoes, carrots, corn, red peppers, water chestnuts, potato flakes, cooked quinoa (quinoa, water), cooked brown rice (brown rice, water), zucchini, broccoli, arrowroot powder, rice starch, cooked millet (millet, water), oat fiber, garlic, spices, sea salt.

    California Gluten Free Veggie Burgers (gluten-free)

    I adore the rich onion flavor in these patties. Dotted with chunks of carrots and zucchini along with whole peas and edamame, there is no doubt that these truly are vegetable-based burgers. My only qualm is that the burgers are very, very soft and a little difficult to handle unless well broiled on each side – even then, they tend to want to be a little mushy and wouldn’t hold up on a standard grill. I actually enjoyed the mouth feel of the texture, but found them difficult to transfer from oven to plate. If gluten-free isn’t a concern for you, Dr. Praeger does have a California burger with gluten that may hold up better.

    Nutrition (per burger): 120 calories, 6g fat, 13g carbs, 4g fiber, 1g sugars (includes 0g added sugars), 3g protein.*

    Tex Mex Veggie Burgers

    My first experience with Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burgers was the Tex Mex variety, which I discovered at Trader Joe’s. I love how many vegetables they pack into these burgers! And you can see them – whole little bits of vegetables and black beans are visible throughout. The Tex Mex flavor was calm and influential rather than overly barbecue. They lacked the “wow” factor for us, but were generally tasty. We just wanted a bit more richness, which could possibly be had with some sliced avocado.

    Nutrition (per burger): 130 calories, 6g fat, 14g carbs, 6g fiber, <1g sugars (includes 0g added sugars), 5g protein.*

    Black Bean Quinoa (gluten-free)

    I decided to pick up a new-to-me flavor when Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burgers were on sale locally. The Black Bean Quinoa had more protein than the other options, so I picked that box. Like some of their other burgers, this one cooks up a bit soft. I recommend frying it in a pan for the best results. It tastes a little bread-y, but I liked it. It had a nice savory flavor, with a hint of spice, and a lot of bean, corn, and grain interest going on.

    Mushy mess with too much salt.

    There are many great veggie burgers available but these certainly are NOT them. They have no internal consistency and therefore fall apart easily, no matter if they’re cooked in a toaster oven, fried on a pan, grilled or oven-baked. Even if they somehow stay together enough to move onto a plate or sandwich, the internals of the burger are wet (akin to British “mushy peas” but even mushier), so there’s no way to really chew on them. I can’t recommend these overpriced “baby food patties” at all.

    Found a dangerous foreign substances in my burgers. After several weeks of trying to get an answer from Dr Praeger’s company. I received a coupon for a free Dr.Praegers item. Seriously? Who would take that risk again

    I tried other vegan burgers & the test of theses ate really good. My daughter & I tried the Asian & California burgers. We loved them both. I cooked them in the oven & they turned out great . We topped them with lettuce tomato & Mayo I used seed grain bread & it’s a keeper.

    I recently got a small air fryer and test everything I eat in there! All the veggie burgers cook up super crispy — much better than in the oven or skillet. My favorites are the Aslan and Korean ones. New to these, were on sale and now I’m a repeat buyer

    A 99 Gram Burger contains 8 g of fat 20 g of carbohydrate and 6 g of protein which means it has 66 g of water! The box cautions you that they may contain milk egg and fish! You have bought a very expensive hamburger patty that when you bite into it melts in your mouth!

    I love DrPraeger’s Supergreens Pattie. Very tasty, Gluten free, and Dairy free. I’m Vegan and it’s very hard to find plant based tasty patties that are both Gluten free and Dairy free.

      This veggie burger is great! Thanks for writing the review! Looking forward to more like this.

      Where can I order all these veggie burgers? Costco use to carry them. Not any more.

      • Alisa Fleming on November 30, 2016 7:22 am

        That’s a bummer! They’re at several stores in my area. You can see their store locator (or contact them) here – http://drpraegers.com/where-to-buy/

      I used to buy these in a chile relleno variety which I adored due to their little peppery kick and one day they were gone… Never to return. Am I correct or will there be a season in which they are redistributed for sale?

      • Alisa Fleming on April 24, 2016 6:53 am

        I’m not sure Lynne – I haven’t heard of that flavor but it sounds delicious! Hopefully they do bring it back. They’re constantly innovating with new flavors, too.

      I have been eating these everyday for lunch for a while and I absolutely love them. What I have been trying to find out is what the vegetable serving equivalent in one of the super greens veggie burgers. Do you happen to know? Thanks for any information you can provide.

      • Alisa Fleming on March 23, 2016 9:41 pm

        Hmm, I’m just speculating, as I don’t know for sure Arlene, but because the fiber level isn’t super high, I would guess 1 serving, but it could be closer to 2.
