I’ve got some meat-free burger deliciousness for you. All kinds of yum with 100% plant-based ingredients.

Would you like to learn to make these hearty and slightly sweet burgers made with mild Indian spices?

Watch a video of me cooking the burgers on a class sponsored by . Find the link in the comments below. The recipe is in the comments posted with the video.

Among other things, we talk about nutrition, health and my favorite curry powder I wouldn’t want to live with out!

I love these nutrient-rich and planet-friendly burgers and imagine you will too. They’re perfect for lunch or dinner. Served with a bun, on their own, or crumbled on a salad. Happy cooking!! 💕

I love the combination of the sweet, tart, bitter and umami flavors in this quinoa dish from my Plants For You cookbook. With roasted sweet potatoes, it’s a nice addition to a Thanksgiving table.

The other dishes in this article look good too. 😋

Here are some recipes that pair well with the main attraction, yet are filling enough for any vegetarians’ main course.
