This sophisticated beet burger recipe tastes better than most restaurant veggie burgers.

Maybe that’s because its creator taught at the New England Culinary Institute before joining a school nutrition program.

Recipe adapted from Dave Horner, food service chief of Mount Mansfield Unified Union School District in Vermont.

Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat.

Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 3 minutes.

Whisk egg in a large bowl.

Using 1/2 cup for each, shape the mixture into 6 patties, each about 2 1/2 inches wide.

Place on the prepared pan.

Bake until browned and heated through, about 30 minutes.

Serve on buns with your favorite toppings, if desired.
