This cookbook is gorgeous and has so many delicious recipes! This is an awesome cookbook for those who are vegetarian or vegan or even those who just want to decrease their animal products. There is a huge variety and burgers for everyone!

Just about every recipe it absolutely wonderful and delicious! I say just about every one since I haven't tried them all yet. Oh my goodness, these are worth your time to make these and enjoy. The directions are easy and simple to use. As some one whose favorite meal is a burger, this book gave me some wonderful ideas for new ways to have my burgers! Plus on the days where I want a burger just not meat this gives me the option for the lighter fare! The Best Veggie Burgers on the Planet will be forever on my bookshelf!

I never read the original 2011 book, but the revised and updated edition offers a veggie burger to satisfy your every craving!

Burger is my favorite. It is hard to find vegetarian burgers in stores. This book gives as recipes for healthy vegan burger recipes.......

This was ok but not excellent. I am a huge fan of burgers in any shape or form and one of the best parts of becoming a vegetarian years ago was realizing how much nicer vegetarian burgers are.

Unfortunately this book and I just are not meant to be friends as the recipes are not my cooking style. There are a lot of TVP and vital wheat gluten based recipes along with other ingredients I hardly ever use or never use. There were a lot of ideas and creativity, but they just weren't for me.

I really liked this cookbook. Since I am Vegan, I am looking for a little variety beyond the usual chickpea burger options.

She certainly gives that variety. The carrot burger was really yummy. I'm not a big fan of the fake meat burgers. They are OK, but I'm mostly interested in the bean and veggie burgers.

My main criticism of most of the veggie burger cookbooks is that even though different ingredients are used; it is essentially the same burger. Mash beans, add flour and veggies, and fry.

The burgers in this book are more of a variety. There is a section that has a wide variety of non bean vegetable burgers. None of them seem to be repeats of each other.

I am gradually working my way through this book. I have liked every burger that I tried.

I am probably going to buy this book. It is a keeper.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for letting me view this book!

I love the idea of veggie burgers and this book gives you recipes on how to create your own! I can't wait to buy this book for myself it'll be a great investment for any vegan or veggie lover!

I am always on the lookout for different combinations of ingredients that I could combine for newer flavours. Burger Patties have always been a draw for me and when I saw this book I had to take a look!

This has an interesting collection, it was not all about the patties as I expected but focuses on a lot of other things as well. This could also help those who are curious about non-meat options for those mixed gatherings. The thing was that many recipes used pre-done vegan options like tempeh etc which I am yet to start making and do not intend to buy outside so it slows down the experimentation process if I was to use this book. There weren't too many in here that I plan to try but it is a good book for those who have already tried a lot of combinations and are on the lookout for more. 

I recommend this to beginners who go past that aisle in the market and wonder what to do with soy, tempeh and all other vegan 'meat'.

Who doesn't love a veggie burger?

**OMG! I cannot believe that these reviews haven't been done! I am so sorry they are so late!!!**

The author admits that this updated version of her book enters a world of vastly improved veggie burgers available in both restaurants and supermarkets. For those people who like to cook and still want to create their own burgers, this book has 101 burgers using a wide variety of ingredients (in some cases, a lot of ingredients). The recipes are all vegan, so some use nondairy vegan substitutes for dairy products. The recipes indicate whether they are free of soy, gluten, nuts or added sugar or oil. The uncooked burgers can be frozen and can be cooked without defrosting.

There’s a chapter on breakfast burgers including things like Bacon and Egg Breakfast Burgers, Quiche Lorraine Burgers (which didn’t seem at all like quiche) and Cherry Oatmeal Protein Packed Energy Burgers (which look like a big, dry cookie and have 19 ingredients). None of the recipes need to be restricted to breakfast. In fact, all of them are too much work for me to undertake in the morning.

There are also chapters on: beef-like burgers, made from things like TVP, vital wheat gluten flour and homemade seitan; bean-based burgers (Three Bean Chili Burgers looked good); tofu-based burgers (including Crab Cakes); grain-based burgers; vegetable-based burgers; seitan-based burgers; gluten-free burgers; fast food favorites (like burgers intended to be reminiscent of Big Macs and Whoppers); loose meat sandwiches; fixin’s like sauces and imitation bacon bits (in the ebook these are linked to the relevant recipes); and buns and breads; fries and sides.

Near the end of every recipe, the author inserts “You Are SO Vegan!” I found this annoying, but then I was reading the entire book, not just consulting a single recipe, so most people probably won’t even notice it. The photos in the book are beautiful and the burgers look appealing, but not every recipe is illustrated. Some of them needed pictures, like the Beef and Broccoli Burger and the Inside-Out Sushi Burger, because I am not imaginative enough to figure out how these are supposed to look. I am a vegetarian, but not a vegan, and this book has a lot of variety and some delicious sounding recipes. Most of them are not quick and they are not health food, but they look good.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher.

This book will work great for some vegans, but very little of it was useful for our family's needs. While I'm not vegan, I cook vegetarian and cook a ton of veggie burgers (generally about once a week), always from scratch. I was thrilled to check out a cookbook full of new ideas.

Sadly, since our family is gluten free and I avoid processed soy, very little of the cookbook works for our particular family. The vast majority of the burgers are made either with vast amounts of vital wheat gluten flour or some sort of soy (TVP, tofu, etc.). While I occasionally cook with organic tofu, I actually prefer to make veggie and bean-based burgers. I'm not sure why, but this cookbook has very few of this kind of recipe. Even the bean burger section tends to call for things like TVP and white flour. Also, health doesn't seem to be a big priority here and that's one of the biggest priorities for me as a mom of five (one of whom is a cancer survivor) who successfully beat some serious illnesses through healthy living. I don't want to feed my kids burgers made of imitation bacon bits or texturized vegetable protein (TVP).

If it's helpful, here's my basic veggie burger mix and match formula, which you can adapt for whatever's in your cupboard: chop and saute a couple of cups of whatever veggies you like (onions, mushrooms, peppers, sweet potatoes, cauliflower etc.) until cooked through, then pulse in a food processor with one can of drained beans of choice (garbanzo beans or black beans are nice) till just chunky and chopped. Scoop into a big bowl and add lots of salt and seasonings (garlic, pepper, cumin, parsley, sage, whatever). Add an egg or some flax meal to help it stick together and then about 2 cups of the equivalent of bread crumbs (mix and match any of these... almond meal, bread crumbs, GF bagel or bread crumbs, cooked brown rice, organic mashed potato flakes, cracker crumbs, quick oats, even some parmesan if you're not vegan). Add more liquid or crumbs till it comes together nicely in a patty. Adjust seasonings and fry in olive oil until browned on both sides or bake on a cookie sheet, turning once, until cooked throughout (about a half hour on 350? depending on what else you're baking and how firm you want them). I use an ice cream scoop to quickly make lots, and then just flatten them with a spatula. A cookie scoop makes perfect nuggets or meatballs. Adjust flavors for endless possibilities (use stuffing mix and garbanzo beans for a Thanksgiving veggie burger, black beans and Mexican spices, add ketchup and vegan worchestershire for a meatloaf version, etc.) and provide a variety of sauces for dipping or serving. These are also wonderful with mashed potatoes and gravy. This makes a lot (I cook for a crowd) but they freeze fine. Reheat frozen ones in the oven, microwave or skillet.

I read a temporary digital ARC of the book for the purpose of review.

I am not a real vegan. I have a ton of food intolerances, and I take my inspiration where I can to make awesome recipes that are tasty and nourishing. This is maybe why I wasn't thrilled by that book. I wanted to, but there were too many ingredients that I couldn't eat. However, I loved how the book is separated by burger type (bean-based, tofu-based, grain-based...) and loved, loved, loved the Fast Food Favorites chapter! I can't wait to also try some of the sauces, dips, and fries recipes.

Many thanks to Quarto Publishing for the complimentary e-copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

It's summer time, and that means cookout time. This is a great collection of meat-free burgers and burger-shaped dishes. I'm totally craving a number of them. Would recommend to anyone looking to cut back on how much meat they eat.

I was salivating just looking through this book! Really good resource for someone craving a meat free burger, there is something for everyone; you can’t fail to find something super tasty! My only critique would be the use of soy in many of the burgers, but that is a personal thing.

This is the "Definitive" vegetarian vegan burger cookbook! A compilation of 100 fabulous recipes from every conceivable healthy ingredient possible. I am a life long vegetarian and I found a multitude of recipes here to try. The book encompasses sides as well that are delicious recipes to try. The recipes are easy to make and the ingredients sensible, healthy and scrumptious.
I love this cookbook and it has become a staple in my kitchen. I highly recommend this for all vegan vegetarian cooks and those seeking a healthier way to eat that will improve your health. This is absolutely the best array of vegetarian burger and side recipes I have found.
Thank you to the publisher and to Net Galley. My opinion is my own.

The tone of the book is a bit jarring and overly excitable for my tastes but the recipes seem reasonable enough. I love that there are a wide variety of recipes available in this one book.

This book is written in American so be prepared to convert to metric / get your cups and measuring spoons out and have Google handy to translate ingredients if you live in the rest of the world.

I had some difficulty reading this book on my Kindle however it worked fine on my phone so it might be worth trying it on multiple devices.

I received my copy free from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.

Not just a burger recipe book! It also has some wonderful sauces and sides included too!
I am not a vegetarian, but we as a family have been looking for ideas of ways of reducing our meat intake on a weekly basis due to the effects on the environment, so this looks great!
I particularly like the sound of the "Tabbouleh Burger" as we are big fans of Lebanese cuisine.
I think this recipe book is well thought out and there is so much to choose from, I can't wait to try some of the recipes.
Thank you to NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read this book, I am sure I will keep going back to it time and again.
I would definitely recommend this book to a friend.

I've read similar books before (although they were mostly about other meat alternatives) and this one is pretty run of the mill.

As a background, I am not vegan. I have a paleo mindset but am very veggie centric due to health conditions. Therefore, my biases may not align with those of the target audience who may like this book a bit more than I do.

When I choose this book, I was hoping for a bunch of healthy and easy to eat recipes. While by vegan and SAD standards these recipes are healthy, there were way too much soy, grain, tvp and maple syrup for my taste. The book did seem well done otherwise, but with no recipes I'd consider cooking I didn't dive in too deep.

Such a great book for anyone looking to cut out meat or already on a meat free diet.
There are so many alternatives to a beef patty, and this book has almost all of them. So many amazing ways to have a burger, without just using beans.
