i've had lots of tasty veggie burgers - this wasn't one of them. very bland and they fell apart really bad. next time i'll add lots of seasoning and at least 1/2 cup breadcrumbs to hold them together...and omit the flour - it gives a yucky taste.

This recipe is easy - quick - and delicious -- I am NOT a 'veggie' person - but my husband is - I've sampled MANY veggie burgers - and found them NOT enjoyable! This is one I can enjoy too -- and I'm a meat-eater!! If you make too many - you can refigerate the left-overs and reheat them the following day and they taste great....maybe even better!! Thank you, Jen Parmer, I'll look for more of your recipes.

We all really liked these. The kids refused to eat them as "burgers" but ate them as veggie patties without a bun. Go figure. I did add quite a bit more soy sauce and wocestershire sauce as well. YUMMY.

This recipe is super. I did not change any ingredients. It took one minute to process ALL vegetables, onion and cheese in food processor. I sauted the vegetables in iron skillet for added vitamins. I sauted until the vegetables were free of any liquid. The reviews are right only 1/3 Cup of flour was necessary for dipping patties in after forming them. I pressed them in a hamburg press for uniformity. Because I knew that I would use a George Forman grill I added about 1/2 teaspoon of liquid smoke to mixture. They were just the best veggie burgers that I have ever made. I am anxious to substitute brocolli for some of the squash. I hope you enjoy your burger as much as we have.

These were pretty good. I used fat free cheddar cheese and omitted the flour altogether. I don't know if they really taste like a "burger," but I liked them. Will cook the leftovers and freeze for an easy meal. Thanks!

I thought this recipe was wonderful. I did add one 8 oz. container of tofu for extra protein! These Burgers were a hit at our Memorial Day cook out. I highly recomend this recipe!

These were quite tasty, I did season it up a bit with pepper, Italian seasoning, chili powder and red pepper flakes. They didn't turn out as crispy as I had hoped, but they were flavourful. I will surely make this again!.. It is a nice low fat alternative to regular hamburgers. They were quite time consuming, but well worth it.

These were very good. A little sticky to work with but when you drop the dough in the flour that pretty much takes care of the stickiness. I also added some onion salt, black pepper and a little extra cheese and soy sauce to my mixture. I also made them bigger- I ended up with 5- so I had to cook them longer. Just cook them till they're brown. Overall very good, tasty but not too spicy (although i imagine you can make them as spicy as you want). My vegetarian boyfriend was very very happy with them, since we've tried some package mixes which were horrible. Thanks!

this recipe was great...i've been looking for a great veggie burger without a lot of fillers and i think i have finally found it..i added extra garlic and onions and coated the burger with a little plain bread crumbs instead of the flour and cooked it on the outdoor grill.

Both my husband and I really liked these veggie burgers. I didn't have any problems with "stickiness" and actually just patted them with a little flour and threw them directly on the grill without even refrigerating them first (was rushing and hungry). I will admit to adding about twice as much cheese as called for in the recipe. This one is a keeper.

I thought these were quite good. The true test was when even the "meat only" and the "I don't eat burgers" girls ate them and declared, "Hey, these are good!!!" I've tried several fast food and packaged "Veggie Burgers" and found them to be either too spicy or have too much filler. I read some of the reviews first so I wasn't surprised to find the mixture somewhat sticky. This could be because some of the 1 1/2 cups of flour should have been included in the mixture since there is far too much of it to simply dip 8 patties in, 1/2 a cup of flour is plenty for that purpose. I sprinkled about 3/4 of a cup of flour into the mixture which removed the stickiness. I used only zucchini since summer squash was unavailable the first time and way too expensive when it was available. A little grated red pepper added some "great" colour and flavour. These will be an added favourite to "Burger Night".

EXCELLENT! Very good. I added a few dashes of cayenne pepper, black pepper, kosher salt and garlic salt. It added great flavor. Also I recomment using medium cheddar cheese for an extra bit. As everyone previously mentioned, I had a little hesitation about handling the burgers. The mix was pretty sticky, but I let the patties sit for about 15minutes and popped them on my George Foreman Grill. The turned out great. I'm recommending them to my family and friends, especially if they've gone the store bought route. Thank you for sharing! :o) :o)

This was my second time trying to make veggie burgers (my first attempt - different recipe - failed miserably). Fortunately these turned out wonderful. I think next time I will add some chopped up mushrooms and Montreal Steak spice to give them that added burger flavour! They held up very well.

This is an excellent recipe for making homemade veggie burgers. I've made this many times and everyone loves the crunch of the oats (rather than beans like most veggie burger recipes call for). I make extra and use whole wheat flour to coat and cook each patty, wrap it in plastic, put them in a ziploc bag, and store them in the freezer. then i take them out and heat them on the pan when i want to eat them.

I love this recipe!! It's a bit of work but well worth it. I've made this recipe 3 times, and the last time I trippled it! I froze some of the cooked patties, wrapping them individually in plastic wrap. Now I just have to pop one in the microwave for 30 seconds and voila, dinner! I don't have a broiler pan so I just placed them on sheets. I also had trouble with the flouring the patties so I omit this step and cook as is.

Good recipe - I added 1/4 cup more oats and, since I was in a hurry, put the mixture in the freezer for about 20 minutes instead of the fridge. Had no problem with excess moisture or crumbling or falling apart. I mixed everything in my food proccessor. I placed my hands in the flour first before handling the mixture to make patties - really helped, no stickiness. The burgers tasted bland to me, even though I used a lot of garlic and Italian seasoning. But I love spicy food, so it's no wonder to me that they tasted bland. Think I'll try mixing in some ketchup or a little tomato sauce next time to give them more flavor. I like these! Will definitely make them again.

This sounded so good but sadly, it wasn't. I think it needed a little more flavor - not sure what though. Per other reviews, I let it refrigerate for longer and was generous with the flour but they still fell apart. I'm not ready to give up on veggie burgers but I didn't have much success with this one. :(
