The weekly lunches

I combined D's weekly lunch & dinner last night by making some Spicy Black Bean Burgers from The Vegan Table. These are quite tasty - even though I did go very easy on the chilli (I'm not a fan of hot food). I also didn't have any red capsicum, so substituted half a tomato instead. The mix is quite soft & can fall apart easily, so you'll need to be gentle. This is another recipe where you shouldn't skimp on the flour/polenta coating - it really makes them easier to handle.And my lunch this week? A quinoa stew - pretty much like this one, with carrots, celery, tomato, corn & chickpeas. I also used red quinoa - I much prefer it to the white variety - it has a nuttier flavour
