Who doesn't love Mashed Potatoes? It turns my favorite veggie into a smooth and flavorful mixture. This easy Vegan Sour Cream and Chive Mashed Potato recipe makes about 6 servings in less than 30 minutes. My process includes boiling the mostly peeled potatoes until tender then mashing to my desired consistency. Next, I add the remaining ingredients and combine.

Going to a restaurant can be enjoyable especially now that the weather is warming up and patios are fully opened. I decided to try a new restaurant called Recess which has a lot of vegan options listed.

Making my own veggie burgers may be my favorite pass time right now. I am experimenting with different bean and grain combinations. I created a black bean patty first, but I wanted to keep trying different combinations to make the perfect veggie burger. This quinoa and kidney bean one might be my new favorite.  I make this veggie patty using quinoa, kidney beans, tomato paste, flax seed, and spices.

They did not melt as well as I would have liked, but the taste was spot on and went very well with my burger. Please like, share, and follow for more content!
