More About This Recipe
  • Move over meat -- veggies rule in the summer!

    Harvest time means veggies are overflowing in our gardens and on our plates. Here are two great meatless recipes to put that bounty to use.

    This Monster Veggie Burger is no wimpy burger. It’s loaded with fresh veggies, chickpeas and spices like smoked paprika and cumin. Grill it or pan-fry it -- you won’t be sorry. We love to serve it piled high with more veggies, but feel free to use a bun.

    Of course, you’ll need to serve fries with that burger. Keep the veggie love going by making Green Garden Fries. Simply coat green veggies in panko bread crumbs and oven-fry them. Add a lemony Greek yogurt dipping sauce, and you’ve got the perfect side dish!
