If you’re eager to serve something ”traditional” for your 4th of July celebration but still want an innovative touch I present a new take on burgers! These burgers are mildly sweet, juicy and super crispy. This wonderful meatless dish is both tasty and healthy. I serve them on sourdough bun and some fresh lemon yogurt dressing.
