| Another Peterborough Farmer's Market find! |
The afternoon sun is fading and dinner approaches! Since we had a truly inspiring time shopping the Peterborough Farmer's Martket this Saturday (check them out: http://www.peterboroughfarmersmarket.com/), I thought I would put it all to good use and whip up something scrumptious for the week! I've been hankering for a burger and this morning, while sifting through e-mails and job adevertisements, I stumbled upon this great recipe for Sweet Potato & Black Bean Burgers (http://kblog.lunchboxbunch.com/2012/02/easy-sweet-potato-veggie-burgers-with.html). A few changes here and there, and Voila! Burgers with attitude!

Sweet Potato & Black Bean Burgers
1 large sweet potatoe (peel it, boil it, mash it!)
2 cups of prepared black beans (you could used canned, too)
1/4 cup of chick-pea flower
1 tsp salt
2 tsps smoked paprika
2 tbsp tahini
Blend this all together in a food processor (or mash it all up by hand, if you like!). It will be a heavy and thick but should ball up nicely in your hands. Shape them into patties and dredge in any of the following: ground almonds, cornmeal, corn flakes, (gluten free) bread crumbs, etc... Arrange them on parchment paper or lightly greased foil and bake in the oven (middle rack) for approximately 40 mins of 400F. Flip half way through. The outsides will be crips. The insides will be smooth. All in all- delicious!

Tonight I am going to serve these on gluten free buns with caramalized onions, roasted beets, heirloom tomatoes, and the usual burger "fixings" with a side of corn, brussel sprouts and, if I'm feeling extra saucy, perhaps a gass of wine!
