Burger is one of the most delicious and popular dishes for people around the world. But there is also a hamburger that is not made of meat, but of vegetables, and June 5 is the day of this hamburger - the veggie burger day.
The veggie burgers are very tasty, and sometimes those who eat them do not feel the difference between them and meat burgers.
There are many versions of vegetarian burgers, but what is common to all is that their ingredients are all based on plants. They are based on pulses, lentils, black beans, soybeans, nuts, seeds, quinoa, rice, vegetables such as sweet potatoes, cauliflower, corn, carrots and mushrooms.
With all due respect, the vegetable burgers are healthier than meat burgers.
They contain less saturated fat and therefore are not dangerous to the heart and blood vessels and have a high quality protein and fiber needed for the body.
Another reason to prefer a hamburger-
Perhaps you have heard of the "small" problem of the world called climate change.
One of the things we can do to help stop this process is to eat less meat, because the cows emit methane gas that is causing global warming.
If you like animals and don't want to hurt them, this is another great reason to prefer a vegetable hamburger, which does not include ingredients produced from the bodies of animals.
