- Hi, I'm Auri, and I'm covered in pulp.
It's because there's so much leftover whenever I make juice.
This is two carrots,
and it created less than half a cup of juice.
That's bananas.
(lounge music)
- Mm, that's good. More than good, it's lively.
Let's toss the pulp.
- Are you kidding me? That's where loads of the fiber
and most of the nutrients are.
That's why we're gonna make burgers. Pulp burgers.
- [Kids] Yay!
- [Auri] We're gonna combine a whole can of black beans,
rinsed and drained. I'm using half cup of carrot pulp,
and a half cup of beet pulp.
But you can use whatever pulp you wanna try.
Then breadcrumbs,
which I'm making by blending up a hard old bread butt.
(blender whirring)
A fourth a cup of breadcrumbs,
half teaspoon of onion powder, half teaspoon of cumin,
some chili flake, some black pepper, a teaspoon of salt,
two minced garlics, and one egg.
(bang) And one egg.
(bang) (laughing)
And one egg. (bang)
(kids cheering)
Now we're gonna mash it up.
This recipe by Christa Bruneau-Guenther
is from the IKEA Scrap cookbook.
You wanna get it to a place where it's blended
but still chunky. Okay, I'm ditching this fork
and I'm gonna go for some punching.
Punch, punch, punch, punch, punch, punch, punch.
Now we're gonna form some patties.
(elevator music)
Voila.
I set the oven to 375 and now I'm gonna bake these
for eight to 10 minutes, and then I'll flip 'em over
and bake them for another eight to 10 minutes.
So the burgers are baking
and I'm gonna toast up these brioche buns, grill some onions
and slice some avocado,
but you can prep your burgers however you like.
Our recycling.
And our compost.
- Now we're gonna feed the worms.
- Don't forget to flip 'em.
- All right, and then I'm gonna add it to the compost.
And I'm gonna add some dry stuff.
And then give it a little spin.
- Yummy. Thanks for the good scraps.
- [Shawheen] Mm that's the best veggie burger I've ever had.
- [Auri] I think it's better than the fake meat burgers.
- [Shawheen] Mmhm.
- I think it's a very hearty, flavorful veggie burger.
- You can tell it's healthy just from the way it tastes.
I think we gotta start making more juice
so we can get more pulp.
- So we can make more burgers.
- [Man] Yeah.
