  1. Sandwihes are the best!! It's true, you can put everythink you're craving for in a sandwich. Well, not everything, but...

    I love veggie-burgers, or patties like these, I really have to try your recipes!! But, well, I need a change, I CAN'T use pepper.
    They have nicest colour, and, mushrooms, I must try it!!

    Delicious photos ;)

    1. Well pepper gives a nice flavour but if you can't eat it you can simply add more mushrooms or an additional onion instead. Thanks :))

  2. Sandwiches are one of my all-time favourite meals. These mushroom patties are the perfect stuffing for a healthy pita. Thanks for sharing!

    1. You could probably try grilling them but the result will be different. You can also substitute gluten free flour like oat flour but again, the taste will differ. Good luck with experimenting!
