The green burger, often called a "veggie burger," is a popular alternative to traditional meat burgers. 
 Made primarily from vegetables, legumes, grains, and various plant-based ingredients, it provides a nutritious and environmentally friendly option. Common ingredients include black beans, chickpeas, lentils, mushrooms, quinoa, and a variety of vegetables like spinach, kale, and carrots. These burgers are usually seasoned with herbs and spices to enhance their flavor. The green burger is not only lower in calories and fat compared to meat burgers but also rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. It's a versatile choice suitable for vegetarians, vegans, and those looking to reduce their meat consumption while still enjoying a delicious and satisfying meal.
