You were our inspiration for some delicious burgers.

We live isolated off-grid & when we went to town I got a box of gardenburger veggie burgers & boca spicy chicken burgers- we've been eating them on buns with lettuce, tomatoes, onion & green pepper slices for the past 3 nights! Stir-fried vegetables on the side.

Yum!

Thanks for the inspiration! Burgers are fun, easy & delicious!

Bought some eggplants on sale this weekend and figured I'd make my old stand-by baba ghanoush.

Just came home from work and thought about baingan bharta so I googled.

Delightful.
I always have tons of Indian and Thai spices around and have some not too stale papadams and basmati.

What a treat!

Veggie lasagna w/ chunky fire roasted tomato sauce. My friend wasn't too sure about cheese-less lasagna, but we finished the whole pan full so I guess he didn't mind it.

Roasted cauliflower ravioli w/ a mildly spicy carrot sauce that uses coconut milk to make it creamy. It sounds kind of gross, but I just made a small plate to make sure it was edible before I serve it to anyone, and it tastes so good. I'll have to come up with a more appetizing name when I tell people what we're having.

Tonight was vegan macaroni and "cheese" (recipe by Isa Chandra Moskowitz), sauteed collards with liquid smoke, and baked yellow squash.

LivingDeadGirl, and everyone else---here is a recipe that combines broccoli and sweet potatoes, but in a terrific salad. It's from a vegan blog that I love called Taste Space.

Sweet Potato, Broccoli and Pomegranate Salad with a Peanut Dressing
1.5 lb sweet potatoes, unpeeled and chopped into 1.5 cm chunks (6 cups)
260g broccoli florets and stems, chopped into bite-sized pieces (3.5 cups)
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup vegetable broth (or oil, if you prefer)
1 tsp minced ginger
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp agave or maple syrup
1/4 tsp salt, or to taste
2 green onions, minced
2 tbsp cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup pomegranate seeds (from 1-2 pomegranates)
1. Place sweet potatoes on a parchment or silpat-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Roast sweet potatoes at 400F for 20-25 minutes until cooked through. Set aside to cool.
2. Meanwhile, lightly steam your broccoli for 3 minutes to remove the raw edge but keep its crisp bite. Rinse under cold water, drain and set aside.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the peanut butter, broth, ginger, lemon juice, agave and salt (to taste). Add more broth to obtain your desired consistency.
4. Combine sweet potatoes, broccoli, and green onions in a large bowl. Drizzle with the dressing. Gently fold in the cilantro and pomegranate seeds, saving a few for garnish.
