I came across some interesting web sites and/or blogs as I was searching for veggie burger recipes (for my Dream Diner). Here's a few of them:
• I found a Black Bean-Grain Burger recipe on the Smith's Vegan Kitchen web site that looks pretty good!
"We are not writers," they say on their web site, "nor are we chefs or professional cooks, just food lovers. We enjoy cooking, experimenting and sharing recipes and ideas with friends. We hope others will share their recipes as well!!" They got this recipe for black bean-grain burgers from The Chicago Diner Cookbook, and they also recommend the restaurant in Chicago. So I decided to see if the restaurant had a web site too, which it does:
• The Chicago Diner, Meat-Free Since '83
Vegetarian and/or vegan restaurants are great places to find macrobiotic food when traveling. The Chicago Diner has two "Check Please!: Chicago" videos on their web site's About Us/Gallery tab, which gave me a pretty favorable impression of the restaurant. Made me hungry just looking at their food! I thought the news article about how the restaurant started was pretty interesting too — and kinda romantic! (See the History tab on the web site.) I will definitely keep this diner in Chicago on my places-to-visit list.
• In a New York State of Black Bean Burger — this veggie burger recipe is from the Sustainable Pantry Cooking Blog.
Oh boy, oh boy! Not only have I found a recipe that calls for whole oat groats (which is not a very common ingredient to be found in recipes) but I've also found a good food blog! You can click their "About" tab to learn that Sustainable Pantry is "about cooking whole, seasonal food at home..."
• Carmelized Onion & Chickpea Burgers — the article from Saveur magazine made the burger sound really appetizing; the recipe comes from Chow. I was already familiar with Saveur magazine, and now "Chow" has become a new source for finding recipes. I found another veggie burger recipe there that sounds good to try, which is vegetarian and vegan:
• Black-Eyed Pea Vegan Burgers recipe from Chow.
