Serve the cabbage nest burgers fresh out of the oven for the best crunch.
Leftover nests can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) to bring back the crispiness.
Burger patties can be prepared in advance and reheated as needed.
Variations:
Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes to the cabbage mixture.
Cheesy Nests: Mix a little shredded mozzarella or parmesan into the cabbage before baking for extra flavor.
Veggie Lovers: Add finely chopped onions, bell peppers, or carrots into the cabbage mixture for more color and nutrients.
Vegan Option: Use a plant-based burger patty and skip the cheese or use vegan cheese.
