Wanting a simple, easy-to-make plantbased burger with lots of flavor? You will love these vegan, high protein Spanish Millet Burgers! They can be made gluten-free and are a great post-workout meal to boost muscle and reduce bodily fat.
The reason these Ayurvedic burgers will help you lose weight, if that is your goal, is because these burgers include ingredients that balance Pitta dosha and Kapha dosha. Kapha body types, or people that are high in Earth energy, tend to be more sedentary and easily gain weight. Pitta body types, or people with lots of Fire energy, have large appetites and are not easily satisfied so they can overeat and gain weight as well.
In Ayurveda, it is not necessary to eat a low-carb diet to lose weight because there are some carbs that help you to GAIN weight and other carbs that help you to LOSE weight. So, we only need to choose the right carbs for your body type. Millet is an excellent Kapha-reducing grain. It has a heating quality that helps to liquefy body fat. The black beans help to balance both Pitta and Kapha dosha, and the sweet potatoes are great for Vata and Pitta dosha.
These Spanish Millet burgers are well-balanced so that they can be enjoyed by ALL body types all throughout the year (Vata types can make some adjustments). You can also prepare the ingredients ahead of time so they can be quickly made on busy weekdays!
