Golden Beet Burgers (grain free)

Jump to Recipe

Beautiful golden beets fried up into delicious little burgers.  All I can say is, “Mmmmmmmm!” 

One of my favorite things about where I live is the access to UH-MAY-ZING produce all year round.  We get a CSA box from a local farm (thank you, farmers!), and it’s always exciting to see what’s inside.  Little One goes with me because it’s fun to visit the farm and because I want her to see where the food she eats comes from.  This week, we found some delicious golden beets in our box.

Have you ever eaten a golden beet?  If not, you really should!  Seriously!

What’s really great about getting a box of local, season produce (besides the fact that it’s the most economical and sustainable way to eat) is that it provides inspiration for me in the kitchen.  When I decided to use the beautiful golden beets to make yummy little burgers for Father’s Day, it was not my intention to create a blog post.  But they turned out so yummy and so beautiful.  So here we are.

The recipe is super easy.  Shred some beets.  Crack some eggs.  Add some herbs and tapioca flour.  Fry them up.  The flavor is earthy, sweet, and savory.  I usually serve them as a main dish with a big side salad. They pair well with my curried cauliflower. My mouth is watering just thinking about them.

So if you are lucky enough to find some beautiful golden beets, I encourage you to give this recipe a try.  Just imagine yourself biting into one of  these golden, crispy beet burgers.  Like I said, “Mmmmmmmm!”

    Is there anything you can use besides eggs? I can’t do eggs.

      Hi, Beth! The eggs are what hold these fritters together. I have heard of people making fritters without eggs, but I have not tried it with this recipe. Would love to hear if you do. 🙂

how do you start your day? 💪🏃‍♀️🧘🏽‍♀️🚴🏽‍♂️☕️

mindset mindset mindset 🧠🧠• having a morning routine allows us to set an intention for the day rather then just letting the day run away from us • it helps determine our mind set and the tone for the rest of the day ✨✨

things like meditation, journaling, yoga, exercise, and other self-care practices can help us start the day feeling calm and inspired 🧘🏻 • consciously selecting the thoughts we have, the foods we eat , and the news/social media/images we see matters • a solid morning routine can reduce stress, boost energy, increase mental clarity, and leave us feeling 🤩

creating a morning routine looks different for us all • routine comes easier for some than others • we all have different priorities, time limits, physical needs/abilities, and health concerns there • are no rules • find what works for you 

i know that i feel better when i stick to my morning routine • i know that i feel better when i don’t engage with my phone or social media the first hour or two after waking up • i know i feel better when i consciously select what i bring into my head space first thing in the morning, including the thoughts that i have 

my morning routine currently looks like this:  10 minutes of quiet meditation, some form of elimination pathways opening like Gua Sha, coffee e nema, an epsom salts bath, or a sauna, yoga/workout, and a big green juice 🥬🥒🍏

👉👉 do you have a morning routine?  i’d love to hear how you start your day • leave me a comment below ⤵️⤵️
