I never really knew what to do with beets! Until I made this recipe for raw beet burgers.
Beets are a unique source of phytonutrients called betalains. Betanin and vulgaxanthin are the two best studied betalains from beets, and both have been shown to provide antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification support.
Be careful when you prepare beets, the pigments in beets can stain your clothes.
- 2 small beets
- juice of 1 lemon
- 2tbsp ground flax seed
- 2tbsp sesame seeds
- handful of parsley chopped
- 21 seasoning to taste
- salt and pepper to taste
Peel and chop beets and process in a food processor. Add all the other ingredients and process.
If mixture is to wet add more flax seed.
Form into patties and let set in the fridge for a couple of hours.
Serve on lettuce leaf or a sprouted bun with avocado and fresh homemade salsa!
I also like it with a little bit of mustard.
So good!
