Creamy Roasted Cauliflower and Leek Green Veggie Burgers

These creamy, flavorful veggie burgers are made with roasted cauliflower and leeks, cashews, nutritional yeast, almond flour, and oats. They're a healthy and satisfying alternative to traditional beef burgers.

The inspiration for these veggie burgers came to me one day when I was roasting a head of cauliflower and some leeks. The vegetables were so tender and flavorful, and I thought they would make a great base for a burger. I experimented with different ingredients and proportions, and eventually came up with this recipe. I've been making these burgers for years now, and they're always a hit with my family and friends. They're a great way to get your veggies in, and they're also a delicious and satisfying meal.
