Banana Heart Burger is made with shredded banana heart patties, cheese, and all the fixings. This vegetarian burger is a delicious and nutritious alternative to the usual beef. And it’s budget-friendly, too!
Banana heart is one vegetable I love to cook with. Not only is it relatively inexpensive, but it’s also a versatile ingredient you can turn into many mouthwatering dishes, such as kilawin or lumpia.
One of my favorites to make with it is this meatless burger. Juicy and tasty with all the fixings, you’d hardly miss the beef!
