This recipe can be made with any veggies you have in your fridge or whatever your favorite vegetables are. I usually just use the vegetables I have in the fridge and those are the ones I listed in the recipe, you might also add olives, water chestnuts, lime juice, jalapeno or other peppers...the combinations are never ending. I have tried these dressed like a hamburger on a bun with all the fixings and without a bun as shown, both are good. Again, all members of my family enjoy this meal, but I must say, Guacamole is the key no matter how you serve this, they are dry without it. I usually just buy 2-3 avocados and whip it up myself by mashing them and adding chopped onion, garlic, lemon juice and pepper. Also note, you are not deep frying them in coconut oil, just use a small amount to cook each patty. I believe that coconut oil is good for you in moderation, so because of that, this recipe gets an A on the health-o-meter due to the fiber, protein, whole grain and vegetable ingredients.... this meatless meal is a winner at my house.
