Just a quick post before I scamper off to the gym to do, wait, what? Yoga? That doesn’t sound like running. But more about that later. For now, the veggie burger I made the other day:
I scaled down (and tweaked) a recipe from one of last summer’s Vegetarian Times. I have yet to experience failure with a VT recipe, though I’m sure one is lurking somewhere. The bulk of the burger is made of oats and minced mushrooms, and I was skeptical, but it worked. I think this might be the reason I spend so much on fruit and veg:
This was a particularly produce-heavy meal, but not ridiculously so (for me). I’ve never been good at choosing mangoes, but I got one the other day to make some fruit salad, and it was perfect. Meltingly good.
I’ll probably talk about this more later, but I made a shirt. That’s the worst photograph ever, but it’ll have to do for now. I used the shirt variation of the dress I made the other day, and it’s obviously quite a bit different — and SO much easier. I’m going to make another dress using this (elasticized) collar, and I don’t think anybody will ever guess they came from the same pattern.
Off to yogercise.
That burger recipe sounds like the Chicago Diner burger recipe that VT featured – looks delicious!! And all that produce on your plate = VeggieGirl’s favorite type of meal :0)
That shirt you made is simply stunning!! Love the orange-red color of it – almost the color of a grapefruit! :0)
I never know what you’ll make next. I half expect you to suddenly say that veg and gardens are dumb but space is cool and you’ve made a spaceship.
Cool way to take a photograph of a shirt, too.
that burger looks delicious.
and the shirt looks fabulous. can’t wait to hear more about it.
btw, thanks for the zipper tutorial. i used to recently to make 2 zippered cases. cheers.
SUPER cute top! Your food pictures look so yummy!
i would love to get that recipe for the burger, it looks so good!
The shirt is lovely! It is *so* nice to see you sewing again!
i agree, most VT recipes are pretty tasty and easy… although a cabbage & radish slaw was kinda lacking a few years ago from them
