• Scoop cooked veggies into a blender or food processor and pulse 2-3 times until combined, but not total mush.

• Serve on a burger bun, in a wrap or over a salad with your favorite toppings.
• If you plan to store the patties for later: remove baking sheet from the freezer after an hour and cut parchment paper into squares. Stack patties on top of each other (with a piece of parchment paper between each patty) and place in freezer proof container. When ready to serve, follow cooking instructions above - no need to thaw patties.
