We love all kinds of veggie burgers, but this is one of our favorites. Bulgur can be substituted for the quinoa if desired.
Ingredients
Tahini Sauce

- 3 tablespoons tahini

Directions
Step 1
Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 2
Process carrot in food processor until roughly chopped; add quinoa, garbanzo beans, green onions, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, and cumin. Pulse quinoa mixture until just mixed; transfer to a bowl.
Step 3
Stir peas and corn into the quinoa mixture; refrigerate until mixture comes together, about 15 minutes. Form quinoa mixture into patties.
Step 4
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; fry patties until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
Step 5
Stir yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, cilantro, and curry powder together in a bowl. Serve burgers with tahini sauce.
