In this week’s episode of Extreme Kitchens, I am partnering with Impossible™ Foods and cooking a delicious Wild Mushroom Impossible™ Cheeseburger in the middle of a supermarket! I topped the #ImpossibleBurger with sauteed wild mushrooms and a flavor-packed roasted garlic aioli served up on a toasted bun with lettuce. I’m not saying it’s the best burger ever made on Earth, but I’m not saying it isn’t!
