Vegetarian Patty Melt Sandwiches

We have been trying to eat extra healthy on weekdays. I have been taking my lunch to work more and Eric has been cutting back on weeknight beers. Those extra calories add up faster than you would think. But it’s hard to be good all the time so weekends are our cheat days. Friday night for dinner we made patty melts.

Vegetarian Patty Melt

To make the vegetarian patty melt you need:

  • Gardein ultimate beefless burgers
  • sliced sourdough bread
  • 1 small white onion diced
  • Velveeta cheese (or Field Roast Chao slices to make it vegan)
  • about 1 tbsp vegan butter

This can be made all on one skillet. Start by cooking the diced onion in just a little bit of butter. Saute until golden brown then remove from the pan and set to the side for later. Then over medium heat cook the frozen burgers. Cook them for about 10 minutes making sure to turn and cook on both sides.  Then assemble your sandwiches. Layer cheese and onions on the bottom piece of bread top with the burger and a top layer of cheese. Then just heat it in the skillet to melt the cheese. Flip to toast both sides of your sandwich using more butter if needed.
