It is clear that Lettus Organic Cafe , now called The Plant, in San Francisco’s Marina district is known for their infamous and mysterious Garden Burgers.

I’ve made this a hundred times, and I’m pretty sure this recipe is perfect. Try it out, it’s easy and the prep is quick. I pick my favorite vegetables at the farmer’s market every week and usually go for zucchini and mushrooms, but almost anything will work. Chicken, tofu or the meat of your choice can be added as well, I often use extra vegetables to replace the protein. I prefer the consistency of soup but if you want it a little thicker add 1 Tbsp cornstarch and 1 Tbsp water to create a paste and add it in. With the rice though, it shouldn’t need a thickener. Enjoy it!
Honeycomb is basically condensed honey. The combs are made of hexagon cells made by honeybees to hold both their honey and pollen. Honeycomb is amazing on toasted bread, and perfect for a cheese plate drizzled with a balsamic reduction. If you want a salty, creamy texture, blue cheese would compliment the honey wonderfully. I prefer a nutty, aged cheese like Parmigiano-Reggiano with either toasted walnuts or sliced Prosciutto di Parma. Other cheeses that would pair nicely due to personal preference could be Goat, Ricotta, or Feta cheeses.
