Vegan Big Mac
Ingredients
- 6 oz Plant-Based Meat (See Notes)
- 2 Slices Vegan American Cheese
- 1/2 Cup Shredded Iceberg Lettuce
- 5-6 Dill Pickle Slices
- 2 Tbsp Diced Onion
- 1 Sesame Bun + Bottom Half of another Bun
Big Mac Sauce
- 1 cup Vegan Mayo
- 1/4 cup Ketchup
- 2 Tbsp Yellow Mustard
- 2 Tbsp Sweet Relish
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
- 1 Tbsp White Vinegar
Instructions
- Combine ingredients for the Big Mac Sauce. Stir until well combined. Season to taste and then set aside in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- To prepare your middle bun (aka the Club), use a serrated knife and shave off just the bottom of the extra bottom bun.
- Split the 6 oz of plant based meat into 2 (3 oz) portions. Press or form your burger patties so they match the circumference of your buns.
- Grill buns in a bit of oil or vegan butter (or do a dry toast) until lightly golden brown. Set aside (ideally on a wire rack so they don't get soggy).
- To the same pan or griddle, over medium - medium high heat, add a little oil and then add the burger patties to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and grill for about 3 minutes. Once patties are browned, give 'em a flip!
- After you flip the patties, add a slice of vegan cheese to each one and cover with a melting dome. You can add a little water before covering to steam the cheese too!
- Once Cheese is melted, assemble as follows; Bottom Bun, Sauce, Lettuce, Burger Patty, Onions, Middle Bun, Sauce, Pickles, Lettuce, Burger Patty, Sauce, Top Bun.
- ENJOY!
