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!

Portabello and Spinach Pizza

Pizza night!
Pizza night is a special occassion in our household. Most specifically because we have found a great gluten free pizza crust. So in addition to this being a pizza recipe, this is also a quick and easy recipe, using a pre-made crust. Our favorite crust comes from Sami’s Bakery. He makes millet and flax pizza crusts, all gluten free ingredients, but just a warning that they do make their gluten free products in the same facility as products with gluten.
Their millet and flax products (also include crackers, bread and lavosh) are so good that I am dying to know the recipe because nothing compares to the quality of the products, and you can’t really tell that they are gluten free. It might have something to do with the use of a brick oven…but it is still a mystery to me.
We used to be able to purchase their products when we lived in Key West, but they haven’t made it out west yet, so we order online, and therefore keep it as a special treat.
Our favorite pizza lately is a portabello mushroom and spinach pizza which is pretty easy to put together. We even use a store bought sauce. After looking at the options around town, we are happy with Whole Foods Organic sauces. I am pretty surprised when I see how many companies use sugar in their pasta sauce. It seems like a violation of nature! Thankfully Whole Foods organic sauces (as far as I have found) do not add sugar to their sauce (and the price is great!). We have tried a few but personally I like the Mushroom Tomato Sauce.
