I Forgot I Didn't Have BUNS!

 I re-ordered my MOST FAVORITE Veggie Burgers EVER and decided to have one last night.  I totally forgot I didn't have any Burger-Buns on hand!  I didn't want to go back out just for those - so I used Whole Grain Bread instead.  It was what I had on hand.  I toasted the slices of bread and added what little bit of lettuce I had left in my produce section of my kitchen as well as adding some Lentil Sprouts and the actual Veggie Burger.  I topped it with Wildtree's Discontinued Ketchup and NEW Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce.  I've said it before and I will say it again...I LOVE this Dipping Sauce because it's Egg/Dairy-Free (Vegan accept for the Honey...so...Apia(n) Vegan if you want to put a label on it, I guess.) UNLIKE most you find in stores and restaurants!  YUM!

Here it is assembled.  It was really good!  I did the 'patty' on stove top with some Basil Pesto Grapeseed Oil.

Veggie Flatbread

I have to apologize - I didn't take a pic of the final product but it was a little messy!  BUT...in THIS case...Messy is GOOD!

Sure... you can put anything in a flatbread but here is what I put in mine last night for dinner...

Foot Long Flatbread - like the ones Subway offers

Iceberg Lettuce
Baby Spinach

Onions

Tomatoes

Green Peppers

Banana Peppers

Pickles

Follow Your Heart High Omega Vegan Ranch Dressing

Wildtree Chipotle Hot Sauce (Discontinued)

Artichoke Cashew Veggie Burger (cut in half/long-ways)

It was SUPER tasty and FULL of protein, vitamins, nutrients, etc!

Midweek Munchies

It's Midweek Munchies Time!  I would LOVE it if you joined in!  Let me know if you do!  Here's what I got/ordered this week!

I shopped online at VeganEssentials.com today as they are having a 10% off incentive
(today and tomorrow ONLY)

 As you can see the few products above I ordered a Garlic Spread!  I LOVE just about ANYTHING Garlic so I thought I would try this!  I also got another spread!  A Nutritional Yeast Spread.  I heard it was comparable to Vegemite or Marmite so I thought I would try it.  I do make a Earth Balance & Nutritional Yeast Sprinkle topping which is ok but wanted to try this, too!

And then you can see I got TWO different kinds of Ravioli!  I have been craving it lately!  I got the Butternut as well as the Garlic & Roasted Veggies!  I really wanted the Artichoke and Olive but they were sold out!

I have also been craving mashed potatoes but have been too lazy to make my own! So I got the Chreesy ones above.  I tried the plain ones before and I didn't care for them only because they didn't taste like anything.  I really had to 'doctor them up'.  But I heard this flavor is the way to go!  I also got some Potstickers - there are a few Wildtree Sauces I want to try with them!  AND...I got a little snack!  Salty Chocolate Snackle Mouth Granola Clusters.  I LOVE Granola.  Oh yes!  I also re-order my FAVORITE Veggie Burgers.  You can read more about them HERE

Artichoke Burgers by Five Star Foodies

About a month ago I placed an order with VeganEssentials and I came across these lil discs of awesomeness!  Visit the Product Page from Five Star Foodies!  

I have to say this is my new FAVORITE Veggie Burger!  By a LARGE Margin!  I LOVE these Artichoke Burgers from Five Star Foodies!  They are wonderful!

They are SO flavorful!  They are made up of Artichokes, Cashews, Cashews, Brown Rice, Potato/Corn Starch, Oil, Cane Sugar, Spices!

These come out pretty good in the microwave but my favorite method is to do them in a frying pan with a little bit of Grapeseed Oil!

This is FOR SURE a re-order in the NEAR future!
