The zucchini and carrot burger is a tasty and vegetarian idea to enjoy in good company. I made a burger with zucchini and carrots by adding eggs, breadcrumbs, and Parmesan cheese. Once cooked, I served the burger inside a bun with lettuce and tomato, and dressed it with mayonnaise (you can use a sauce of your choice). With this recipe, you will win over all your guests!

Steps
To make the zucchini and carrot burger, grate the zucchini and carrots, and place them in a bowl.
Add a pinch of salt and start mixing the ingredients. Then add the egg. Continue to mix, incorporating the Parmesan cheese, and then a sprinkle of oregano.
Finally, add the breadcrumbs and blend until obtaining a homogeneous and soft mixture that can be worked with your hands.
Divide the mixture into 2 equal parts and flatten with your hands to shape into a burger. I placed the mixture inside a circular pastry ring (diameter 4 inches) and leveled the surface with the back of a spoon to obtain smooth and compact burgers.
Cook the burgers in a pan with a drizzle of oil, browning them on both sides.
Or bake them in the preheated oven, with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, at 392°F until golden, about 15 minutes.
Halve the buns and toast them on the grill on both sides.
Assemble the sandwich, starting from the bottom part: dress with mayonnaise, then lay down slices of tomato, the burger, lettuce, and dress with more mayonnaise.
Close the bun and serve. Enjoy your meal!
