Welcome to my Cooking with Friends series! Every two weeks, I invite some of my favorite food writing and blogging friends to share recipes with you. I hope you’ll have just as much fun cooking and baking with them as I do.

I’ve had a long love affair with veggie burgers, beginning (dare I admit) with those cardboard “fake meat” pucks I used to pull out of the freezer case back in college (gah!). Thank goodness my tastes have evolved since then. These days I prefer vegetable burgers that are flavorful, moist and brimming with vegetables instead of processed soy who-knows-what.

These crimson beauties are one of my family’s favorite weeknight meals. While many homemade veggie burger recipes involve a million ingredients and steps, I’m a firm believer that veggie burgers should still be a food of convenience. In this recipe, I’ve streamlined the ingredients and process, taking inspiration from the black bean burgers in my first cookbook, The Food Processor Family Cookbook (Sonoma Press, 2016). Instead of cooking the ingredients first, I blitz raw beets, sweet potatoes, chickpeas and seasonings right in the food processor, and then bind them together with an egg and chickpea flour. The burgers are naturally gluten-free, are packed with protein, and are brimming with flavor, with a subtle sweetness from the beets and sweet potatoes. Even my two young girls will gobble them up!

While they’re delicious on their own, we take these gluten-free veggie burgers over the top by slathering them with a 2-minute sriracha mayo, which is a staple in our house (we use it on everything from sandwiches to fries to roasted vegetables). The sauce is creamy, garlicky and spicy, and man, I could seriously eat it with a spoon. You can use either regular mayonnaise for the base, or vegan mayo, depending on your preference.
