Steps
Make the Special Sauce
Add all the special sauce ingredients in a small bowl: 1/4 cup sour cream, 2 tablespoons ketchup, 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, a pinch of salt, black pepper, 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1 teaspoon lime juice.
Mix the sauce ingredients well. If the consistency is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water to thin it out as needed.
Bake Patty & Toast Bread
Prepare your favorite frozen veggie patty. For a crispy result, air fry the patty for 8-10 minutes (or follow the toaster oven instructions on the box).
Once the patty is baked, place a slice of cheese on top. Close the air fryer or oven and bake for another 2 minutes until the cheese is melted.
While the patty finishes, toast the brioche bun until golden.
Assemble Burger
Open the toasted burger buns and spread a generous layer of the special sauce on both the top and bottom halves.
Place the cheesy veggie patty on the bottom bun.
Layer the sliced pickles, red onion, butter lettuce, and sliced tomatoes on top of the patty.
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
Notes
Veggie Burger Suggestions: Trader Joe’s Masala Burgers, Dr. Praeger’s California Veggie Burger, or Morningstar Farms Garden Veggie Burger. For a vegan version, use a plant-based patty, vegan bread, and substitute vegan sour cream and cheese. For gluten-free, use a gluten-free patty and bun.
