Flavor is good, but they turned out really crumbly for me.

Very good with a chipotle mayo! My meat love boyfriend loved it.

Hi Stephanie, I’m sorry, that wording is confusing. I referred to the water + flax mixture that you make in step 1 as a “flax egg,” but I’ll change that to say “flax mixture,” so it’s more clear.

Did you get an answer to this? The ingredients called for ground flax and water. The instructions said to use the “flax egg” which is what ground flax and water are called when used as an egg replacement. Since she didn’t call it flax egg in the ingredients, it is confusing.

The taste of the end product was pretty good, but I found the instructions very confusing. One of the steps towards the end mentioned an egg. I didn’t know if that was a typo, because it was not mentioned in the list of ingredients.
I also found the mixture to be difficult to form into a burger, because it kept falling apart.

Any tips would be appreciated!
I would want to try to make it again if someone could offer advice.
And I’d also like to know if there is indeed an egg in this recipe! All it says is “egg”. Does that mean one egg, or more?

I always mix red quinoa into white (because it looks more appealing) so I don’t have red only. And I only have pickled beets. So I will try with what I have on hand. They won’t look the same but I will adjust the balsamic for the inclusion of pickled beets and see how they turn out. Great inspiration!

Hi Mary-Kate, I think chia seeds could work, or if not vegan an egg (minus the 3 tablespoons water) would work too.

I want to get back into making them again…but I am living in a place (small island in South Pacific) that doesn’t stock ground flax or flaxseeds. Is there a substitute you can suggest please?
