Why I Love This Recipe
Hey there, burger lovers! It’s Chef AJ, your Queen of Quick and Easy Plant-Based Recipes! No Nutburger is complete without its signature special sauce. I recreate it by stirring together my Creamy Cashew Sandwich Spread with ketchup and mustard. It takes about thirty seconds, and it’s the perfect finishing touch for burgers, sandwiches, and wraps.
Key Ingredients
- Creamy Cashew Sandwich Spread: My oil-free, Miracle Whip–inspired spread is the creamy base.
- Ketchup: Adds sweetness and that classic special-sauce color.
- Mustard: A little tang to round it out.
The Process
Mix all ingredients together with a spoon until smooth. Then toast your bread or bun, spread the mayo generously on BOTH sides, and add your favorite fixings.
Chef’s Tips
- Generously spread the Sunflower Mayo on BOTH sides of the bread.
- I like to add lettuce, tomato, onion and romaine lettuce.
- At the restaurant they also add sprouts and offer avocado as an option.
How to Store
Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days (the same as the Creamy Cashew Sandwich Spread).
