Zucchini-Chickpea Veggie Burgers with Tahini-Ranch Sauce

Made this as written and thought it was missing *something*.

Followed the directions exactly and mine were completely raw in the middle.

Even after adequate cooking time, the patties don't set up. Basically hot hummus on the inside. Doesn't make for much of a burger.

These are absolutely fantastic, as well as incredibly satisfying and easy to prepare, and are fast becoming a weekday staple! I love how well the patties hold up and how adaptable they are, I've made them 3 times so far and here are a few favorite additions/suggestions:-I love to use Dave's Killer 21 Whole Grain burger buns, they're whole grain and have a delicious nutty flavor and provide a nice textural balance, but pitas are also great. I toasted both. -I added thinly sliced radish, kalamata olives, and cucumber on top, and made a little salad with the arugula by adding fresh basil, mint, dill, and cilantro for a "falafel" vibe. Also, if you don't care that it's not vegan, feta cheese makes an awesome addition either crumbled on top of or mixed into the patties.-This works really well with cooked quinoa in place of the oats! I increased the amount to 1/2 and it still came out great, plus it pumped up the nutritional/protein content a little bit.-Tip: If you're too lazy to make the sauce, I found hummus works as a nice base (I used Cedar's Lemon, with a sprinkle of Zaatar on top). Also great with avocado if you don't dig the flavor of tahini:)

These were great! Made as written and wouldn't change a thing! I was afraid they patties would be bland but they were perfectly spicy. Keeper and already shared with a neighbor and my college-aged son.

This was delicious. Fairly easy to make, pop it all into the food processor and form them at the end. Pretty quick coming together for dinner on a weekend and everyone really loved it.

Going to rate this on taste only since I failed to execute the recipe as written. The taste was good, 4/5, even though I didn't have miso. I would add more garlic and the fresh stuff as opposed to the powder. On the execution; the patties held up so-so despite the fact that the sauce was added to the patties instead of separated from the patties. (My 12/yo daughter was helping me with dinner by making the patties by herself and I was to cook them) Lesson learned, always pay attention to the instructions carefully and give lots of hugs & compliments to disheartened child for trying.

Absolutely delicious! I substituted shoyu soy sauce for the miso paste and served the patty on a bed of arugula and tomato and pour the sauce on top. Yum!
