I had dinner with L.A. bloggers last night! Can’t wait to tell you more about it later! For now, just days away from Vida Vegan Con, here’s another flashback recipe.

This is one-upmanship from yesterday. Stuffed cheeze burgers! My TVP is soaking and my quinoa is cooking as I type. Dinner can’t come soon enough.
I made these last night and enjoyed the texture once cooked. They were perfectly filling. However, I had a heck of a time actually making the patties. They mixture was super sticky. My hands were covered, and I couldn’t quite get the two patties to seal up. I finally got something resembling a patty into the oven. They weren’t pretty, but they were definitely tasty. Was your mixture sticky? Not sure where I went wrong.
I’m LOL because I actually recall thinking they didn’t look all that great but I loved the taste. I wonder if stickiness varies based on how long you soak the TVP?
LOL I have to say I loved that “cheese” inside the patties.
If I haven’t said it enough already by my incessant tweeting, I LOVED OUR MEET UP!!!!!!!
Um and these burgers look incredible. I need to try stuffing a burger with cheese, best idea ever!
I loved our meet-up, too!!! It was fantastic to meet you!
