  • Black Bean Veggie Burger Southwest Salad, Pfft!

    I saw this recipe on the back of a Morning Star® Black Bean Burger box and gave it a try. It was really good, but over time I've tweaked it a little bit to make it healthier.

Irreverent Vegetarian Chatter

We may choose not to eat meat, but that doesn't mean that we have to like it. From lipstick vegetarians, raw food celebrities, vegan snobs, to crappy veg foods like Tempeh—there are a million reasons to hate on vegetarian life. And don't get us started on vegans. We mercilessly mock veg products, recipes, celebrities, patchouli and commit a meatless shit ton of other vegetarian on vegetarian crime.

Anyway, after making the Southern Tofu dish I was in the mood for an appropriately southern dessert and cobbler jumped to mind. But, what is cobbler, exactly? […]
