Chickpea Broccoli Burgers- Vegan
These are a delicious veggie burger that we have been making for years. They are really tasty and simple to make. To make them you combine broccoli, sauteed onions, chickpeas, and couscous in a food processor. The onions are flavored with cumin so you get a nice flavor. You then form patties and bake them for about 45-50 minutes. We serve them with hummus and flatbread. We forgot to take a picture but we eat these pretty regularly so we should be able to take a picture when we have them again.

May 13, 2012- Riagtoni with Cheese
Riagtoni with Cheese
This is one of our favorite pasta dishes to make. It is originally a crock pot meal but we decided to start making it in the oven. You combine cooked (al dente) rigatoni pasta with a can of cream of mushroom and some cheddar cheese. You also add in salt, pepper, and oregano. You top it with a mixture of bread crumbs and parmesan. You drizzle melted butter and bake covered for about 15 minutes and uncovered for about 10-15 minutes until browned. It is so delicious. Again, we forgot to take a picture, but we have this one every other month or so. It is soooo good. :)

May 12, 2012- Oh Exams...
I had my comprehensive exams in theory and methods today and so I went out to celebrate with my friends who also took them. We went to Flames, a restaurant and bar and we got a bunch of appetizers: sweet potato fries, garlic fries, asparagus fries, and spinach and artichoke dip...and plenty of alcohol. Too much actually. But anyway!
Nick had some kung pao Trader Joes dinner...let's just forget about this night. I actually didn't remember most of it anyway :) haha

Tofu Edamame Nuggets with Roasted Potatoes- Vegan
We were supposed to have some roasted quinoa with potatoes and cheese but I had been so stressed out studying I didn't have time to go grocery shopping. We didn't have cheese and onions so instead we had these frozen tofu edamame nuggets which are really good (from Trader Joe's) and we had those for dinner with some roasted potatoes instead. It was still a good meal, and vegan!

Nick's Homemade Saucy Veggie Bake- Vegan
Earlier in the week when we were planning the menu together, Nick said that he really wanted to make some saucy veggie casserole. I said okay honey you go for it! And he did. He literally put vegetables and tomato basil sauce in a casserole dish and baked it. The end product was pretty delicious. We had edamame, corn, peppers, broccoli, carrots, green beans, and cauliflower. Pretty nutritious and easy to make I will say. And also vegan!

Croissant Sandwiches
Nick had class tonight and I was going to meet with friends to study for our exams on Saturday so we made croissant sandwiches. We don't really like mayo so we use avocado and spread it on the croissant and then used colby jack cheese. We added shredded carrots and sliced almonds. It was a pretty good sandwich. We also took some veggie chips. Yum!

Falafel Burgers- Vegan
This is one of our favorite types of veggie burgers to eat. They are inspired by falafels but don't necessary taste like falafels. They taste lemony and have a kick due to some cayenne pepper we add to the mix. We serve them in pita with some hummus and cucumber. It is a quick dinner to make and is also vegan.
