NOTES

  • This tasty fully-plant-based burger is an excellent filling, low fat alternative to the traditional beef / chicken burger.
  • Beetroot is known as one of the super foods. It is low in calories, yet rich in fibre, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. They also contain inorganic nitrates and pigments both of which have a number of health benefits.
