“The sandwich-segment boom is based on health-conscious people perceiving sandwiches as better for them than burgers or fried chicken." - Dominick Voso
This week I made this delicious 'healthier' version of a burger, so thought will share it with you all. For the first time it would actually be in a Recipe format :)
Ingredients:
1/2 Red Onion
1 Tomato
2 Banana Peppers
Ready-to-cook Vegetable Patties
1 cup of Spinach leaves
Few Basil Leaves
Small cup of Fat-Free Mozzarella Cheese
Sandwich Thins [Oroweat]
Hummus
- Chop Onions, Tomato and Banana Peppers
- Also shred the basil leaves thin
- Slice the Sandwich Thins
- Heat the Patties on [Medium High] on a Skillet for about 8-10 minutes. Turning them continuously.
- Throw in some onions to sauté on heat along with the Patties
- Once the Patties are heated and dark brown, sprinkle some mozzarella and shredded basil leaves on top. Do not turn them again. Let the cheese melt on the warm Patties
- Toast the Sandwich Thins
- Spread a generous layer of Hummus over the Toasted Sandwich Thins
- Add Spinach, Patty, Tomato, Onions, and Banana Peppers

ReplyDeletedefinitely a recipe i will try out and thanks so much tanvi for taking the effort to write down the ingredients and method...i was one of the peole who requested you to do the same and i am really appreciating the fact that ur doing so
btw i tried out the healthy pasta recipe of urs, with my individual twist and got generous compliments from the husband, he even went to on to say that this is the best pasta ever and it was even better than the one we had at one of the high end restaurants that we had dined at some time back...i was glad to huge extent!!!!
That really looks healthy! You actually made your ingredients also look yummy! Great job!
ReplyDeleteWant it..want it...want it.
ReplyDeleteIt has the perfect nutry element!
It shall be the there in my kitchen
tonight:):).
:) Tanvi, I love the sandwich thins that are out on the market today...only 100 calories and whole wheat to boot!!! I like to layer them with a thin layer of pesto and some thin avocado and red onion slices (+ turkey bologna- I know you're vegetarian, but for us non-vegetarians there are a few more options out here)...makes for a nutritious and healthy meal!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Hummus, and it's great that you add this to this healthy burger, must try your recipe out!!! and thanks so much for the birthday wish, enjoy your weekend sweetie :)) xoxo
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious! I love veggie burgers, and I'm definitely going to try this out :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks great and I love your experimentation with the collage! looks fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI am printing this and adding to my "blogger recipe" files.

ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, honey!
DROOOOL! Tanvi those look amazing! Can I have one pleeease? (too bad I love baking sweets but hate actually cooking!)

Thanks for stopping by, i have a lots of post catching up to do! x
Yummm!
ReplyDeleteThey look really good. Which brand of veg patties is tastiest? morning star?? I haven't tried Sandwich Thins - will give it a shot
ReplyDeleteHealthier burgers - Love it! Thanks for posting this!
ReplyDeletewe usually make these kind of burgers when we go for camping and all..and they taste so good..humus is my new favorite spread that i have discovered recently..earlier i used to stick with butter/cheese but now i am trying to change towards healthy options :)
ReplyDeleteI cooked (well, helped cook) for the first time today and I've officially caught the cooking bug. I'll be trying this recipe eventually!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds fantastic!!! I'll have to remember that for next time. I saw one episode of Biggest Loser where they used portobello mushrooms! Thought that was pretty cool :)
ReplyDeleteclothed much, a modest fashion blog
I'm vegetarian but this looks and sounds pretty good (I'd just replace for a veggie patty!)
ReplyDeletehttp://pagesixxx.blogspot.com/
looks yum. Which brand of patties do you use? My fav is Morning Star. The Spicy Black Bean ones are to die for!!
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy. Speaking of burgers, have you ever tried Oprah's recipe for Turkey Burgers, it's all over the place online, and they are to die for. May not be as healthy as this version, but definitely delicious.
ReplyDeleteTanvii..I love your blog. I think you have some great information here. Some of your posts are immensely reflective and some real fun to read. Looking forward to more!
ReplyDeleteFirst not only do I love this post but I also want to eat the food and want to learn how to make my photos like that. You are always so creative. I'm inspired. I'll have to show you how to make something one of these days.:)
ReplyDeleteWhat will you make me when I visit San Antonio, my dear daahling Tanuuu? :) I'll be glad that I'll be able to eat as much as I like because it will all be super healthy! :) Yayyy
ReplyDeleteYumm! looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteseriously yummy! you're blog has expanded since I was last here!
ReplyDeleteThat looks really delicious! I am a pretty big fan of real burger and veggie burgers, and I think I could try this with either!
ReplyDeleteCe qui m'inspire
