Happy Eating!
I was really impressed with this. It Bursts with flavor! My vegan dogs thoroughly enjoyed it as well since there was nothing in this burger recipe that could harm them.
I invented this little meal with what little ingredients I had in my pantry (I need to go to the store, and desperately wish I had my own garden!) I was scrounging as my husband was rushing out the door to get to work. I needed to make him something that he could take with him to sustain his energy for the 12 hours he is there. Plant-powered energy ya'll!!
A little note for all you ladies out there; I am not a homemaker, or a wife that does what her hubs asks: "get me a sandwich" type thing. I am - in all honesty - just being a nice woman who can also be known as a domestic goddess ;)
It took little time and tastes great! Of course you can add whatever variations you'd like to the recipe. But it makes for a great meal during the barbaric BBQ season.
Share with friends and family and even your dogs!!
Peace begins on your plate.
