Meatless Monday...how'd that happen?

Its been a weekend full of hanging out and eating out with family and friends! Today, despite the holiday, we still had a bit of work. No worries, its all good.  I had time to go to Whole Foods to get groceries. Good idea? I think my blonde roots kicked in telling me it wouldn't be too busy.

Um, NO!! It was crazy! But I still managed to make my way through the chaos to shop till I dropped. I love shopping for wholesome nutritious foods. Its an adventure each time, okay I am exaggerating a little but still, its FUN!
Well, dinner time rolled around way too fast and all we wanted to do was stay in and chill since its another 4:30am wake up call tomorrow. So whats for dinner? Open faced Mushroom Burger.....simple and fast!

Here's my wing of a recipe.

• Grab a portabella mushroom.
• clean out roots ( I use a spoon)oil in the inside (I used grapeseed oil)
• season (garlic, curry, black pepper)
• Bake upside down at 400F for about 20 minutes
• Then add a cooked sunshine burger or homemade jiffy burger on top
• layer almond cheese, veggie cheese, or regular mozzarella cheese on top of veggie burger
• Place back in oven and broil for 2 minutes or so.
• take out of oven and garnish with broccoli slaw and chalula sauce.

YUM!!

Serve with sweet potato and brussel sprouts and you got yourself a MEATY MEATLESS DISH.  I actually didn't mean to go meatless today but its probably good we did because we doubled our vegetable intake that might have been a little neglected this weekend, haha!

Hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day! Misson Monday is back next week with an awesome vegetable salad. Sorry for the delay, but its a work in progress so stay tuned!

And congrats to all those who raced CapTex Tri today! Way to survive the heat.

Cheers,
