I love Madison sometimes! The city is closing down entire streets so that we can bike wherever we want! Check it out here.

Now if only they would make a big budget Danny the Champion of the World!

Sorry I’ve haven’t been posting, but I’ve been super busy with my new job! 

Here’s a recipe for veggie burgers based on Mark Bittman’s Spicy Autum Veggie Burgers to tide you over until my next post-

• butter and oil
• 1bunch parsley
• 1 red pepper
• 1 bunch chives
• 2 large potatoes or sweet potatoes
• 1 parsnip
• 2 15oz cans of cannellini beans
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp chilli powder
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 eggs
• flour

Melt a little bit of butter and olive oil over medium heat in a deep skillet. Chop the parsely finely and add to pan. Saute until wilted and remove from heat. 

Drain and rinse the beans. Mash them in a large bowl and add the parsely.

Add a little more butter and oil to the skillet. Bring heat to medium. Finely chop the red pepper and chives. Peel and shred the potatoes and parsnip. Add all the veggies to the skillet and sautee for 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper, and other spices. Cook for 2 more minutes. Cool a little bit and then add to the bean mixture.

Add the eggs to the bean mixture along with enough flour so that you can easily make patties. Cook the patties over medium heat until both sides are browned. I like to precook these and then heat them up later on the grill!
