When Taco Tuesday has come and gone, the next best thing is fajitas—and our easy **Homemade Plant-based Fajita Burger** hits the spot!

## Can’t get enough Tex-Mex flavour? Neither can we!

We’ve done a classic [Chickpea Fajita](https://silverhillsbakery.ca/chickpea-fajitas/) and a  [Fajita Grilled Cheese](https://silverhillsbakery.ca/fajita-grilled-cheese/), but this slightly spicy homemade Fajita Veggie Burger is one of our favourites. It’s packed with protein from tempeh and black beans, vitamins and minerals from crunchy and colourful fresh peppers, and healthy fat from avocado.

And since our Plant-based Fajita Burger is stacked on our sprouted whole grain Burger Buns, you know you’re serving up a fibre-rich family meal.

### Instructions

- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- To make the patties, combine all veggie burger patty ingredients in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until large pieces are broken down, but the mixture still has texture. (Do not purée).
- Form mixture into 4 large patties and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until nicely browned on the first side, approximately 15 minutes. Flip and bake another 7 to 10 minutes until firm and browned on the second side.
- While the patties are cooking, sauté the sliced peppers and onions for the fajita burger topping in olive oil until softened.
- When ready to serve, split the buns open and brush the outside with olive oil. Place in the oven until warmed through, approximately 8 minutes. (Or toast as desired).
- To assemble, spread avocado on bottom buns, top with plant-based fajita burger patties, non-dairy cheese, pepper and onion mixture, and top buns. Serve and enjoy!
