I’m so pumped that my wolfgang puck immersion blender arrived today! WOOO HOO! I can’t wait to try this baby out. I’m hitting up the grocery store later tonight so I’ll get lots of goodies for my blender to play with.
Dinner this evening was a very tasty Spicy Black Bean Gardenburger which I sandwiched between a Joseph’s Flax Wheat and Bran pita and topped with tomato, onion, banana peppers, and half of a light swiss Laughing Cow Wedge. I steamed some broccoli and tossed the other half of the cheese wedge on top of that. Melty and delicious!
Here’s the nutritionals for this dinner: 295 Calories, 49 g Carbs, 7g Fat, 20g Protein, 15g Fiber.
While I love the Gardenburgers, I’m hoping to try making my own veggie burgers sometime soon. Maybe my new blender can assist with that 🙂 The spicy black bean burgers would also be great with an avocado salsa on top. Note to self!
Here’s a shot of my garden in progress. So far, I have cherry and plum tomatoes, jalapenos and banana peppers, thyme, rosemary, basil, and chives. I’ve got room for a couple more plants, but still trying to decide… Maybe cucumbers. Wish onions didn’t grow underground… I’m just not ready for that sort of craziness.

Yay for garden burgers! I made these black bean burgers a couple of weeks ago and even Dylan loved them! http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Homemade-Black-Bean-Veggie-Burgers/Detail.aspx
I want to try and make falafel sandwiches! We should get together and do it 🙂
