First off, I know this picture sucks. I took about half a dozen equally bad shots before I got pissed and quit – so, there ya go.

What did not suck, thankfully, was this burger. I’m always on the lookout for unique/creative burger recipes because it’s kind of necessary to really kick things up a notch in the flavor department when you’re not using meat.  This burger is a great example of that.

I served this with Chili Lime Corn on the Cob and Sesame Asparagus, both of which complemented the flavor of the burger quite well.
