Filling for the burger:

- Sliced tomato
- Sautaed mushrooms
- Caramelized onions (with balsamic vinegar and erythritol)
For the zucchini bun:
Cut two big slices of a giant zucchini and roast both sides for a couple of minutes on high heat in a pan (aprox 2-3 minutes each side).
Finally, fill the zucchini bun with all the ingredients above and enjoy :) You can add any kind of vegan sauce to make it juicier.
Zuchhinis as the bun, my mind is blown. I'm not a vegan, but damn would I love to try that!
