My favorite veggie burgers...so far!
Isn’t it wonderful when you look in the fridge and you have all of the exact ingredients you need to make your favorite recipe? I know it doesn’t happen that often, especially without having planned it, and gone out specifically to get them. This happened to me last night. It just so happened that everything I needed to make my favorite veggie burgers was all in the kitchen without even knowing it! As tired as I was, I could not pass up the chance to make now!
As the cooking process went on I realized that I also had all of the ingredients to make my favorite sun dried tomato avocado spread which goes so well with the burgers. Once I was making all of that oven baked fries followed right along…and with a little salad, I had a beautiful dinner! It came together beautifully, and I hope that you enjoy these recipes sometime soon as well. Enjoy!

Roasted Vegetable Tart
Saturday, May 16th, 2009
A bite of goodness
The other night we had a dinner party with some of our friends here in Boulder. It was great to see them again as time seems to get away from us when it comes to socializing. When it comes to having a dinner party, I am always happy to create something that I don’t usually make for myself. A new recipe, or an old favorite becomes an opportunity for a new twist. I have been playing with tart recipes for a little while now, and thought that would be perfect for this crowd. A mix of gluten-free gourmets I knew that it would be a great opportunity to try out a gluten-free tart crust. Thankfully, the reviews were quite supportive of the outcome!
I made two different crusts because one friend also avoids flax and almonds, but I still wanted to see how the tart would taste with those ingredients…personally I think both were really good. I will list the variations below in case you want to try both as well. I will not mislead you by saying that this recipe is easy. It was a lengthy process, but it was totally worth it! And we just made sure to make extra so we would have leftovers to savor for the next few days. (I suggest you do so as well!)
