Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 remember, it is not in burger form, but it tastes like a burger. when you add some cheese it hold the crumbles together well. you can also do a chik'n sandwich with all the fixin's with the garlic breaded " chicken " pieces. hugs, Chanda - zenbakerwoman Monday, August 25, 2008 1:11 PM Hi Silver & Chanda Re: burger made using Quorn crumbles I can't wait to try a Quorn burger now.
