veggie burgers on chive-red pepper biscuits with a corn and peach salad and grated beets

Alright so there’s been some requests for the burger recipe. I can’t really give it up yet because truthfully, I haven’t perfected it. I’ve been trying to use less and less binding agents, such as psyllium husks, and more of proper cooking technique, such as not over cooking the rice or quinoa so it absorbs more of the moisture. With that said, I will work diligently on my burger patty so that I can share the perfect recipe with you.

I hope as a consolation you will appreciate this next recipe because it is simple.

Cherry Beet Salad

2 Beets

12 Cherries

2 Tbs Apple Cider Vinegar

Handful Roasted almonds (chopped)

Pinch Salt (Sea Salt)

Pinch Pepper

Peel your beet. Don’t forget to use gloves if you don’t want purple hands, or maybe you do, I don’t judge. If you have a mandoline, use it to grate your beet as fine as you can. If not, use a grater. Place in a bowl.

Mix in pitted, halved cherries, salt, pepper, and vinegar. Let it marinate until ready to serve. Add almonds as a garnish.

I love beets and love to make simple side dishes with them. Trust me, there will be many more to come.

    I’d like to know what the white fluffy stuff is on top of the burger! I can’t tell and it looks really good.

    Kirby, they are roasted red pepper biscuits. Ask Malloreigh for the recipe.

  3. malloreigh on September 17, 2010:

    I am not sure whether to post the recipe since it’s just a slightly modified one from a cookbook but I’ll email it to you, Kirb.

  4. Meike on September 17, 2010:

    I think you should post it *lol* – just cite the cookbook you got it from as source.

  5. malloreigh on September 17, 2010:

    It’s generally bad form to post online recipes from cookbooks… it discourages people from buying the cookbook. :/ Maybe I’m alone in feeling that way, though!

  6. Kirby on September 17, 2010:

    I thought they were mashed potatoes and am disappointed that they’re not. No need to post or email me!

  7. Meike on September 18, 2010:

    Okay, you might have a point there. How about telling which cookbook it’s from? That might actually encourage me to buy it. ;)

    It’s from The Garden of Vegan – page 174 – the savoury onion & pepper biscuits. I used chive instead of green onion, and no oregano. Yum.
