Portobello Mushroom Burger Recipe

Our KWF Recipe Developer Extraordinaire, Colin Brett, recently shared this customer and staff favorite. We love these burgers because they’re bursting with earthy notes from local mushrooms! The cashews add a buttery texture and shaved citrus brightens the rich mushrooms flavors. Enjoy them on a bed of kale or your favorite greens!

  1. So flavorful! But they fall apart. Thinking of adding some ground chia seed for the next batch to see if it helps hold them together
