If you've steered clear, you'll want to know you can make chewy, cheesy burgers from just three ingredients: Grate 1/2 lb of halloumi cheese into a bowl, then grate in a large carrot and a small zucchini. Toss with chopped mint or your favorite spices, then form into six patties and panfry in a dry nonstick pan until golden and soft. Done.
Plenty of gluten-free recipes call for swapping out pasta for shredded zucchini noodles. But using more flavorful vegetables like peppery daikon or sweet carrots works even better—especially when those noodles are coated with a zesty peanut sauce like these are.
