Robin Arzón Makes A Vegan Big Stack | Cooking With Friends | Delish

The video features Ramona Sutton, author of *Eat to Hustle*, demonstrating a vegan "Big Stack" burger inspired by the classic Big Mac. Sutton walks viewers through the ingredient list—highlighting nutritional yeast, miso, and textured vegetable protein (TVP)—and explains how these components combine to create a high‑protein, meat‑free patty that still satisfies nostalgic cravings. Key insights include the recipe’s protein punch (nearly 40 grams per burger), the strategic use of umami‑rich miso and nutritional yeast, and a cooking method that avoids a breadcrumb‑heavy texture. Sutton likens the incremental development of the dish to progressive workout training, emphasizing a gradual build‑up of pantry staples and cooking confidence. Throughout the demonstration, Sutton shares memorable moments, such as the “special sauce” dollop, the importance of lettuce and pickles for crunch, and a brief humor‑filled nod to fast‑food nostalgia. She also stresses that the burger can be customized—spicy pickles, extra layers—without becoming unwieldy. The broader implication is clear: plant‑based comfort foods can be both nutritionally robust and emotionally satisfying, offering busy professionals a guilt‑free alternative to traditional fast‑food burgers while maintaining flavor and texture.
