The golden brown crust on the outside of the burgers really makes the meal, so don't rush to flip them—it's worth the wait! It’s is a welcome contrast to the creamy lentil filling, spiked with caramelized cauliflower. At first you won't notice the subtle heat from the red pepper flakes but after a few chews it comes through nicely. The fresh cilantro and generous squeeze of lemon juice perfectly brighten up the savory burgers and add a depth of flavor. <br /> <br />Spicy Cauliflower-Red Lentil Burgers are delicious warm or at room temperature. To serve, pile a toasted bun high with sauce (smashed avocado, mayo, yogurt, or pesto), then add the burger and your favorite toppings. <br /> <br />To read about how to adapt and repurpose these for future meals, head <a href="https://food52.com/blog/20633">here</a>.
