Vegetarian Boca Burger Salisbury Steak Recipe

The following vegetarian Salisbury steak recipe uses Boca Burgers, a meatless burger made from soy. Boca Burgers can be found in the freezer section of most major chain grocery stores and health food stores.

Vegetarian Boca Burger Salisbury Steak uses arrowroot, which can be substituted with cornstarch if preferred. Tamari is a dark brown sauce made from soy beans. It's similar to soy sauce, but has a thicker consistency and richer flavor. If substituting Tamari with soy sauce, you may need to adjust the amount of arrowroot used to obtain the thicker sauce.

When selecting Sesame oil, look for Chinese brands as they are manufactured from raw seeds and boast a heartier flavor. If using cold pressed Sesame oil, add an additional teaspoon to the following recipe.

Vegetarian Boca Burger Salisbury Steak pairs well with mashed potatoes, green beans, side salad and dinner rolls. Other side dish options include corn on the cob, roasted vegetables, baked potatoes and noodles.
