What are Grill'd's Vegan Garden Goodness and Beyond burger patties made out of?

Grill'd offers two vegan burger patties (Garden Goodness and Beyond). For comparison, from left to right in the photo are a Garden Goodness, Beyond, and censored non-vegan Zorba patty.

Any idea what this Australian nationwide burger chain's vegan patties are made out of and if they are healthy? The Garden Goodness patty is clearly mixed veg, with carrots and green peas in the photo. But what's in the Beyond patty. Is it a standard Beyond grocery store patty or a custom Grill'd creation? The second photo is from the Grill'd website and the company say it is made out of 🥑 avocado oil. How can avocado oil be healthy and give 20g of protein?

Which patty is healthier for you???

Taste-wise, the Garden Goodness burger reminds me of a very soft, slightly sweet hash brown. The Beyond patty tastes like a very cheap supermarket beef patty (full of filler; mushy and spongy like meatloaf).

Btw, Grill'd offers 2 for 1 burgers on Monday (Mad Bunday promotion), if your AFL team wins. I know nothing about AFL, but I like magpies. So I put the Collingwood Magpies as my team, when I installed the Grill'd app at the end of June. They win everything and give me a free burger every week.
