veggin' out.

on the menu tonight:


- this veggie burger recipe (except i can never leave well enough alone, so instead of almonds, i used up the last of my pumpkin seeds, added cumin, cayenne pepper, and a small homegrown jalepeno, and subbed in 1/2 a small vidalia onion for the shallots. no big thang.)

- chu-chu-chu-cheetahs! about an hour at 400*, seasoned with s + p.

- aaannndd some unphotoed frozen veg... photo cred.


easy and nutrient rich... like cookies, right?!

sidenote:
did you guys know lentils have the highest protein content of any legume?
there's freakin' 9 grams in a 1/2 cup serving. yeahhh vegheads :)


what'd YOU eat tonight?

  1. Your dinner looks like it was a major success. I can't remember what I had for dinner last night but I just finished eating a roasted veggies alongside a wrap that contained tofutti, dijon mustard, spinach, and cucumbers. Sooo good.

    PS. I saw in your last post that you are sick! Get better soon, buttercup!

  2. the veg burgers look great - def a winner dinner ;) i have a hard time leaving things alone, too. and i didn't know lentils had tons of protein until a couple weeks ago when i first cooked with them! i was surprised - i think because i didn't realize they were a legume, and thought of them as a grain.
    hey, don't laugh. we all start somewhere, right? haha

  3. Looove cheetahs! And I had no idea about lentils being so proteinlicious. Even more reason to eat them!

  4. Coincidentally, I had lentils tonight! I made a lentil salad with a ton of veggies and some homemade dressing, it was awesome. I love lentils...and all beans for that matter. They are my main source of protein (along with amazing grass and vega powder).
