Lunch today included lots of pretty colors.
I topped a big bowl of spring mix with celery, carrots, two MorningStar Farms spicy black bean burgers and pomegranate dressing. I absolutely love using black bean burgers as a salad topper. They add so much flavor and the punch of protein helps fill me up!
The dressing I used on my salad was Marzetti’s simply dressed pomegranate vinaigrette that I bought on sale at Publix on Sunday.
I love this stuff and always stock up whenever I see a deal!
If you scrunched your nose up at the thought of black bean burgers and pomegranate salad dressing, I don’t blame you. It sounds like a totally bizarre combination, but oddly enough, it worked. I was craving black bean burgers but wanted a little sweetness in my salad, so I decided to combine the two and was pleasantly surprised.

I LOVE all Morningstar products and recommend them to vegetarians (like myself) and to meat eaters. I love the veggie buffalo wings and mini corndogs for football season.

I LOVE their veggie dogs and so do my kids!! I love a good corn dog but the meaty processed ones gross me right out so I can’t eat them. The veggie dogs however, taste amazing and I don’t have to worry about eating pig snout and feet!!

I would love to win this MorningStar Farms deal! I absolutely love MorningStar. I have tried their beef crumbles for tacos, chick’n strips, nuggets, and burgers. My most favorite though is the chick’n patties! I make them all the time all different ways. Ive done a spicy buffalo chick’n pattie with buffalo sauce, lettuce, tomato, and ranch on a bun. I have also made a mock chick’n parm with it, adding mozz cheese and tomato sauce. They are delish! Btw, love reading your blog!

I like the mushroom lovers burger, mushrooms, red pepper and garlic and some of my favorite things (I stir fry with them all the time) so it’s a perfect fit for me 🙂 You have a lot of great recipes, do you ever stir fry? I like to “dry” stir fry without oil. I love your blog, it’s so fun!
