Curry Eggplant Burger

A veggie burger is a pretty simple formula - it just needs vegetables, spices and a binder. Here the binder is psyllium, but ground flax seed or chia seeds will also work fine. Optionally, cooked grains, legumes, potatoes and/or nuts can be added. There’s plenty of room to play!

Vegetarian Pho

Revitalizing, hearty, and capable of hundreds of different variations, it’s easy to see why Vietnam's famous noodle dish endears the masses. Many Vietnamese restaurants offer a vegetarian pho but it is often offered only in one gigantic size and can be pricey compared to their meaty counterparts. Homemade pho does need a commitment of time but the flavor and ease of the dish will prove to be worthwhile. A big batch of the broth can be made and refrigerated for up to a week or frozen for up to a month. Cook the noodles and prepare the garnishes only when ready to serve.
