un-cheese, un-bacon burger

I was in NYC over Easter weekend and did a lot of eating. It's the land of plenty for vegans! Check out this burger I got at Curly's Vegetarian Lunch. I don't know if you can tell by this photo, but the vegan cheeze was so melty and smooth!

bean burgers with white asparagus

Bean burgers from Vegweb.com (recipe here) with tomato and avocado with white asparagus and hollandaise sauce. And a little pickle! This is a flashback to last spring, I thought any fellow cold-weather inhabitants who are freezing would enjoy it!

Spicy Mexican Bean Burger !!!

Spicy Mexican Bean Burger yield: 8 - 10 burgers

16 ounce can of red kidney beans, drained and mashed

1/2 cup small onion, coarsley chopped

1/2 green pepper, coarsley chopped

1 carrot, steamed and mashed

1/8 cup picante sauce or salsa (spicy or mild to your taste)

1 cup bread crumbs

1/2 cup flour

1 tsp. black pepper (or to taste)

dash of chili powder

Mix all ingredients together. Add more flour to create a firmer mixture, or more salsa if mixture is too stiff. Form into balls and smash into patties. Bake at 450 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes, until firm, brown and done. Serve on a whole wheat bun with lettuce, tomato and salsa.

We made these veggie burgers and they were so delicious! for a side dish, we had roasted potatos.
