Cheese stuffed burgers that are also vegan? Sounds too good to be true, right? Well this is where I prove you wrong. This recipe is a solid favourite of mine and is surprisingly easy to whip up. You can serve it with my sweet potato fries or salsa salad. Delicious!

Serves: 2 (4 patties)

Ingredients:

• 300g meatless mince
• 1 tsp paprika powder
• 1/2 tsp italian herbs
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 4 tsp bread crumbs (I used panko)
• 1 small handful of fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tsp chopped fresh garlic
• 1/2 tsp chopped fresh chilli
• 2 inch by 1 inch piece of vegan cheese, sliced into 4 (I cut it horizontally like I was cutting open a bagel, then down the middle like I was cutting a piece of toast if that makes sense!)

Method:

1. Preheat the grill to medium
2. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and divide mixture into 8
3. Roll into small ball then flatten down
4. Add cheese to 4 of them, then top each with the remaining mixture, making sure the cheese is sealed in and using your hands to create a patty shape
5. Place under the grill for 5 minutes, then flip over for another 5 minutes
6. Then bake in the oven for 5 more minutes (180) just to make sure the cheese is nice and melty inside!
7. Serve with sweet potato fries, a salsa salad or in burger buns!
