My mom used to make this recipe and I remember smelling the amazing aromas that penetrated the house. It is a quick and easy dinner that is unbelievably satisfying.
You really don’t need anything else alongside, but if you insist, some fresh bread or sliced tomatoes are good choices.
I used arugula (rocket) lettuce but any green of choice would suit…kale, escarole or collard.
ENJOY!
I’m from New York and did not have the tradition of eating black eyed peas on New Year’s Day. My husband, however, is from the South and he loves him some for good luck on January 1st.
I totally forgot to pick some up at the store earlier in the week and was shocked that the shelves in 2 different stores were wiped clean. My husband went to a 3rd store and found 1 can. I was just about to add them to the recipe below when I realized they were “Southern Style” which translates to lots of seasonings and bacon fat! YUCK!
I decided to use Cannellini Beans instead and guess what…these burgers turned out fantastic!
ENJOY!
Veggie burgers are not just for summer. This recipe is perfect for this time of year because they are best cooked on a stove top. They are also healthier than most vegan burgers I have tried because of the beans and quinoa.
I recommend serving alongside fresh veggies. Also, use any leftovers the next day on top of a salad for a crunchy-satisfying meal.
I also like to serve mine with a slice of Chao Cheese, tomato and a simple sauce made with 1/2 cup Follow Your Heart Pesto Vegenaise and 1/4 cup Sriracha.
ENJOY!
