Great. I did end up making about 4 times what the recipes called for. I added 8x as much garlic, 4x onion, a little cayene pepper, and MRS Dash original seasoning. Used only zuchini. I did add tofu for protein and used bread crumbs instead of flour. They look like when you put them together, my husband thought I was joking when I said we were going to eat them. But I sprayed tin foil with nonstick and placed on the grill-perfection! Us grownups loved them, kids not sold, but will learn to love em since I am going to make again. My husband suggested a terriyaki sauce with them.

This was a great recipe! Everyone in my house loved it. My middle boy is extremely picky and the mere thought of a veggie causes panic and fight from him. He gobbled it up happily, though. I added a bit more soy sauce and some garlic, salt, and pepper for taste. You'll definitely want a food processor, though, because it would take a lot of work otherwise.

The taste was great. The eggs I had on hand were really old so I tried the standard soy flour/water egg substitute but it didn't keep these together; they really fell apart. Friends still loved them though!

My bf & I LOVE these! I didn't think they were tasteless at all - we both really enjoyed the taste. I've made these dozens of times by now. I don't follow exact measurements, just add whatever I have on hand (sometimes no summer squash, just carrot & zucchini) and until the mixture forms nice patties. To those of you who's patties are sticky, add more oats; to those who have dry patties, add more veggies. Use common sense - add more or less of whatever you like, and get the consistency right by varying amounts of wet vs dry ingredients. I bread with breadcrumbs instead of flour. I also usually add nutritional yeast & breadcrumbs and sometimes add ground flax & wheat germ to the mixture (can't taste it or tell the difference without, so why not add some additional nutrition?). YUM!

These were REALLY bland and tasteless despite the fact that I added 4 cloves of garlic. I used zucchini only since I didn't have any summer squash. The kids ate them without complaint but the weren't thrilled at the prospect of having them again.

I only gave this one a three because it's probably my own fault. I tried to make a large batch (24 servings) following the same converted recipe. I have used other recipes in the past that have turned out great. These just seemed excessivly sticky and hard to work with. The mess I made wasn't worth the outcome in flavor. For all the work, I wouldn't try this again.

I made these for dinner tonight and we all thought that they were just ok. I added extra flavorings like Worchestershire, cumin, and chili powder but they were still a bit bland. I drained off much of the excess liquid after cooking the veggies and that helped with forming the patties I think. I didn't use flour when I grilled them though, I used bread crumbs. I think I like other burger patty recipes better.
