vegan MoFo day twenty two: friends are the best!

vegan MoFo day 22: emily's black bean burgers.



my friend emily and i finally had a chance to catch up. she offered to cook dinner and i brought wine (and an unphotographed gluten-free chocolate pumpkin bread pudding), and julie, to meet her pup Lulu. she whipped up these gloriously good black bean burgers (peppers, onions, all purpose gluten-free flour, lots of tasty spices, rolled in cornmeal & sauteed in olive oil) & served them atop spinach salad with cherry tomatoes, avocado, artichokes, sriracha, a spritz of bragg's and a side of roasted (homegrown) peppers stuffed with wild rice. MEGAyum!

emily rocked out one fantastical meal (and sent me home with leftovers to share with dan. superw00t!) to fill our bellies while julie and Lulu got to know each other. lots of vegan wine was had, great conversation, and dessert was pretty darn delicious, too. don't 'cha just love vegan-friendly friends?!?! they're the best! <3

I am glad some people has vegan friends, because I am alone in my vegan world with meat and dairy eaters all around me...
I guess the only vegan "friends" I have are all online and they all seem to be in the USA, so I can't go out to eat with them...
Boy, I just realized how lonely I am... that sucks!
