![]() Ingredients: Black Bean Burger Patty: 2 cups black beans (no salt added or low sodium) 1/2 chopped yellow onion 1/4 cup finely ground flaxseed 1 Tbsp chopped garlic 2 Tbsp freshly chopped cilantro leaves 2 tsp chili powder 2 tsp black pepper 2 swiss chard or butter lettuce leaves 1 small tomato 1/4 avocado pinch of salt & pepper Directions: Black Bean Burger Patty: 1. Thoroughly rinse and strain black beans. Chop the yellow onion, garlic, and cilantro leaves. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir until well mixed. Transfer the contents to a food processor and pulse until it reaches a smooth yet firm consistency. Add water 1 Tbsp at a time to help reach your desired consistency. Note: The mixture should be moist and smooth but still firm. It should not be crumbly. 2. After the mixture has reached the proper consistency, divide it into 4 patties. Place a pan over medium/high heat and lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray. Place patties in the pan and cover and grill for about 4 minutes on each side. Spray the pan with cooking spray in between flips to prevent sticking. Continue cooking and flipping until they become firm and browned but not dry. Wraps: 1. Wash and dry lettuce. Cut the tomato into slices. Remove 1/4 of the Avocado “meat” from skin. Place half of the Black Bean Burger patty and half of each ingredient into the lettuce leaves, creating two wraps. Sprinkle with just a pinch of salt & pepper to taste. Wrap the leaves into tight rolls and then slice in half. rabbitfoodformybunnyteeth.com ![]() Ingredients: 1 cup uncooked quinoa Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 3 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice 2 teaspoons lemon zest 2 teaspoons fresh thyme 1/2 cup Vegenaise, or other vegan mayo 1 pound medium asparagus spears 1/2 vidalia onion, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds 2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Grilled flatbread or tortillas (I like spelt tortillas) 1 small head red leaf lettuce Directions: 1.
