Mushroom and Barley Sliders

The addition of nutritional yeast, which can be found in the bulk bins at specialty or health food stores adds not only flavor, but that elusive Vitamin B12 to these yummy Vegan burgers. We used green onions, cumin and thyme leaves for seasonings; however, you could substitute grated red or yellow onion and any spices and/or herbs for a twist. The key ingredient to the burgers is the ground flax seeds,which give the patties an Omega 3 blast and keeps them from falling apart. Enjoy with our baked sweet potato fries and agave sweetened ketchup. You can also make larger patties‐just add a minute of cooking time per side for each inch they grow in size.

The only downside to guacamole is that you have to make it right before you eat it as the surface will oxidize and turn brown. Buy your avocados a few days in advance and store them at room temperature so that they will ripen. To prevent them from over ripening, transfer to refrigerator when ripe to stop process.
