Ingredients

For the burger patties

1 lb beyond meat or any vegan ground beef substitute * See notes
1/4 cup ketchup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon olive oil

For the burgers

4 vegan brioche buns
4 slices American cheese vegan American cheese slices
1 large tomato thickly sliced
1/4 cup lettuce
2 tablespoons pickles
1/4 large onion finely chopped
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 tablespoon vegan mayonnaise optional

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the burger patty ingredients and mix well. Using your hands, form four patties.
Grease a non-stick pan and place it over medium heat. Once hot, add the burger patties and cook for 6 minutes, flipping halfway through. Once cooked, place them on a plate lined with paper towel.
Assemble the burgers. Split your vegan brioche buns and on the top side, spread the ketchup, mustard, and vegan mayonnaise. On the bottom side, place the vegan beef patty, vegan American cheese, tomato, lettuce, pickles, and chopped onion. Place the top on the bottom and serve immediately.

Notes

Assembled burgers should not be refrigerated or frozen, or else they will become soggy.

* Beyond meat ground is what is used in McDonald's McPlant burgers and what we used for this recipe. Other vegan ground beef substitutes will also work.

TO STORE: Leftover McPlant burger patties can be stored in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days.

TO REHEAT: Place cooked and cooled patties in a ziplock bag and store them in the freezer for up to 6 months.
