Preheat a grill or non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Slice the tomato and red onion into thin slices.
Add olive oil to the skillet or grill. Once hot, place the plant-based burger patties on it.
Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked through and slightly charred.
In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or a separate pan until golden brown.
Spread a tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.
Place two lettuce leaves on the mayonnaise, followed by a slice of the cooked patty with melted cheese.
Top with tomato slices, onion slices, and pickle slices.
Spread ketchup and mustard on the top half of the bun to taste, then place on top of the assembled burger.
Season the assembled burger with a sprinkle of salt and a dash of black pepper.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your vegetarian classic beef burger!
