As much as I love meat from time to time I really do desire a vegetarian meal. Most of the time this meal will come in the form of a variety of salads but not today… today I had a veggie burger!
As much as I want to take the credit for the entire dinner I simple can’t… well… I didn’t make the burgers; they were from Mash Direct.
Mash Direct are an independent, family owned farming and food production enterprise. They produce a huge selection of vegetarian meals including the burgers we had today – Vegetable Burgers with Cabbage. Don’t let the name mislead you, the burger ingredients are for more complex than just cabbage… we find in there potato, broccoli, cauliflower, parsnip plus the stated cabbage; all coated in lovely crisp crumbs. I’ve never even considered making a veggie burger myself but after tasting how delicious they can be I think I am a convert and now really want to give it a go myself 🙂
So I have declared that I didn’t make the burgers but I did create the salad and the dressing to go with it. When it comes to the actual salad, well… you can just pop into the bowl any veggies and salad leaves you have to hand… I will however share with you my Coriander and Lime Dressing recipe.
Ingredients:
- 1 red chilli; finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic; minced
- 2 limes; juiced
- 2tbsp honey
- 1tsp balsamic vinegar
- 5tbsp olive oil
- Handful of fresh coriander; chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
Finely chop the chilli, mince the garlic, juice the limes and place all of the results into a mixing bowl.
Add the honey, balsamic vinegar and stir well.
Add the coriander and olive oil and stir until all ingredients are well combines.
Salt and pepper to taste (lemon pepper works very well).
Drizzle over your salad and enjoy!
The dressing will keep well in the fridge for a few days. I am not absolutely sure how long to be honest as it never survives in our house longer than 2-3 days anyways.
What do you think about our dinner today?
Are you a fan of veggie burgers?
How about a coriander and lime dressing?
These look delicious! I love vegetable burgers - thank you for sharing.
I really enjoy veggie burgers, even though I eat meat. I think the dressing sounds lovely too. It’s something I’d definitely make
Healthy and delicious
I really like
I wish I could reach out and eat these right now! They look delicious.
These looks really nice, I haven’t had a veggie burger in ages!
I do like a good veggie burger. I like the idea of the lime and coriander too. I shall have to try this, I’ve not had a veggie burger for ages.
These look delicious! I like veggie burgers now and again….They never look this good though 😀 x
I rarely eat vegetarian meals, but those burgers do sound nice! I like how natural they sound, a lot of vegetarian food these days seems to be pumped full of artificial rubbish.
Oh yum this sounds absolutely delicious - what a treat for an evening meal. x
