I am sitting here in complete bliss after enjoying one of these super flavorful, savory, mushroomy burgers.

A super flavorful burger hugged by a super soft bun that is slathered in cashew mayo and piled high with all kinds of texture goodness: creamy avocado, juicy tomato, crispy cool pickles and sturdy purple cabbage.

or leafy greens.

The leafy greens on the burger with the sesame bun were added right before I capped it all with the bun to eat, because it turns out I am super picky about burger lettuces. They need to not wilt too terribly much.

Second, and absolutely more important, the Spicy Kimchi Sauce.
