After watching The Oprah show with Michael Pollan and Alicia Silverstone, I've been eating a lot less meat, and kept hearing this word "Flexitarian." So now, I'm a vegan recipe junkie. It's really fun to hunt down these "new" ingredients, such as tempeh and seitan, and try them out. I've been cooking at least one new recipe each week, with most being winners and only a few that were not to our taste. My husband grew up on a lot of meat, but even he will gravitate to the butter bean pate if it is there, ha ha! One trick I'm using is that I made a batch of veggie burgers and froze them. While my husband eats his meat, I have one of those and then we share the vegetarian side dishes. I would love to try the black bean burgers you discussed on this show. Thank you.
