Easy Tzatziki Black Bean Burger Bowl Recipe

I first spotted a version of this recipe on the Hungryroot website and loved the concept, but I made a few tweaks to suit my family and make it go further. I added extra potatoes, fresh tomatoes, creamy avocado, and a squeeze of lemon to brighten it all up. Plus, I simplified everything by making it a one-pan meal instead of using multiple dishes. Win-win!

But the real winner here is my Hungryroot subscription. It makes it so easy to shop for gluten-free and other dietary requirements without the usual grocery store letdowns (been there: excited to cook, only to find the store’s missing what I need). I just took their quiz, told them a little about myself, and now, I get a fully personalized Hungryroot box delivered with everything from meal shortcuts to full-sized groceries, snacks, and breakfast staples. It’s hands-down the easiest way to keep my gluten-free fridge stocked and my meals feeling fresh.

Gluten-Free Cooking Tips

  • I always deseed the tomatoes when making this black bean burger bowl. Beefsteak tomatoes are super juicy (which is usually a good thing), but all that extra liquid can make the potatoes soggy instead of crisp. Removing the seeds helps the veggies roast properly instead of steaming on the pan.
  • Use just enough oil to help the seasonings stick. A little goes a long way!
  • If the potatoes need more time, I’d remove the broccoli and burgers, cover them with foil to keep them warm and return the potatoes to the oven until fork-tender.
  • Hungryroot pro tip: On the Hungryroot website, each item has potential allergens clearly listed right next to the product photo, which makes shopping so much easier. Even better—those little allergen tags are clickable! So whenever I’m putting together my next box, I just click the gluten-free tag and instantly see all the options that fit my needs.

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients 

  • 2 bags creamer potatoes, two 12 oz bags
  • 2 beefsteak tomatoes, seeded and diced
  • cooking spray, or cooking oil of choice
  • ½ tsp salt, divided
  • ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper, divided
  • ½ tsp garlic powder, divided
  • 1 bag broccoli florets, 12 oz bag
  • 2 packages packages Actual Veggies black bean burger patties, 4 patties total
  • 1 ½ cups tzatziki sauce*
  • 1 avocado, sliced thin
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges (optional)

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 425℉ and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix 2 bags of mini creamer potatoes with diced tomatoes and cooking oil of choice (I used canola spray, just enough to make them glisten and adhere the spices); sprinkle with half of the salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add to the prepared sheet pan, covering 1/3 of the pan. Roast for 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in the same mixing bowl used for the potatoes and tomatoes, add broccoli florets. Toss to coat with any remaining oil in the bowl, spraying if needed, sprinkling remaining salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • After 12 minutes, remove sheet pan from the oven, gently stirring the potatoes and tomatoes, and add broccoli florets and 4 black bean patties. Return to oven for 10 more minutes.
  • Remove sheet pan from oven, stir broccoli florets, and flip burger patties. Return to oven for a final 5-7 minutes. Potatoes should be fork-tender, and broccoli should have some crispy browning but otherwise appear bright green.
  • Once finished in the oven, chop burger patties into bite-size pieces and serve mixed in with roasted vegetables over a generous bed of tzatziki sauce. Add fresh avocado and lemon juice (optional). Enjoy!

Notes

*I’m partial to our dairy-free tzatziki sauce, but I decided to try the Fabalish vegan tzatziki from Hungryroot and was pleasantly surprised with the quality! Not a bad option if you’re low on time! I used a little more than one container of Hungryroot’s tzatziki, about ½ cup per serving.

How to Make a Tzatziki Black Bean Burger Bowl Step by Step

Overhead view of the ingredients to make a Tzatziki Black Bean Burger Bowl.

Gather all of your ingredients. Now preheat your oven to 425℉ and line a large baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper.

Seasoned new potatoes and diced tomatoes on 1/3 of a parchment lined baking sheet.

Season the potatoes and tomato: Place 2 bags of creamer potatoes into a bowl with 2 seeded and diced beefsteak tomatoes. Spray with cooking spray or drizzle over a little cooking oil of choice (just enough to make them glisten) and sprinkle with ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp black pepper, and ¼ tsp garlic powder.

Arrange the seasoned veggies over 1/3 of the prepared baking sheet and roast for 12 minutes.

Seasoned fresh broccoli florets in a white mixing bowl.

Season the broccoli: While the baking sheet is in the oven, add 1 bag of broccoli florets to the same bowl you seasoned the potatoes and tomatoes in. Toss to coat with any leftover oil in the bowl (you can add more if needed) and sprinkle with the remaining ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp black pepper, and ¼ tsp garlic powder.

Roast everything together: Once the potatoes and tomatoes have roasted for 12 minutes, take the baking sheet from the oven and give them a gentle stir. Add the seasoned broccoli florets and 4 black bean burger patties to the baking sheet. Return it to the oven and roast for 10 more minutes.

After 10 minutes, take the baking sheet from the oven and stir the broccoli florets. You should also flip each burger patty over. Place the sheet back into the oven for 5-7 more minutes. Once done, the potatoes should be fork-tender, and the broccoli should have some brown crispy edges but otherwise appear bright green.

Serve: Chop the burger patties into bite-sized pieces and mix them into the roasted veggies. Add a generous layer of tzatziki sauce to each plate (I use about ½ per serving) and top with the black bean burger/roasted veggie mix. Add a few slices of sliced avocado and a squeeze of lemon juice (optional). Enjoy!

Add-In Ideas

I love this tzatziki black bean burger bowl meal as it is, but you can easily add in other ingredients if you like. Hungryroot is always bringing in new seasonal produce, and I actually get excited when it’s time to plan out each box. Try some of these additions to make it your own:

  • Add in green beans, asparagus, or zucchini—whatever’s in season or in your box that week
  • Toss in some roasted sweet potatoes or butternut squash cubes
  • Add a handful of greens like baby spinach or organic arugula just before serving
  • Layer in some zesty gluten-free falafel for an added protein boost
  • Add in cooked garbanzo beans
  • Try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little spice

Storage Instructions

Keep any leftovers from your tzatziki veggie burger bowls in separate airtight containers in the fridge. You can reheat them in the microwave, on the stovetop, in the oven, or in your air fryer until heated through. I’d wait to slice the avocado until just before serving to stop it from going brown.
