Running Late Today

Running late due to changes in Diary.com. They are removing all features except the journal portion. I loved it as I could take notes and put in tasks into one app that I could access from the laptop, cpu, Kindle, and phone. *sobs* And now I have to find something else before they delete all my tasks. <pulls hair>

Today I have some errands and some clients and if I don't get a move on I won't make a very good impression with my first client, a new one.

So we'll keep this short! I will share my dinner yesterday with you. I ate two of these babies and rolled away from the table!

This is simply romaine for the bread, avocado for the mayo, tomato, and a basic patty. These patties were unplanned as I decided to have juice for lunch yesterday last minute (btw, if you add ginger to your juice, a small slice is just fine, not a big ole frickin knob!!!). This recipe comes from Rejuvenate Your Life by Serene Allison:

Basic Burgers

1 cup carrot and beet pulp (I had pulp from carrots, beet greens, and ginger)

1 cup almonds, ground in coffee grinder

3 Tbs. ground golden flax meal whisked with 1/4 cup water (I used regular flax as I had a tiny amount leftover from a different dish)

1/4 finely minced red onion (used yellow)

1 big stalk of celery, finely minced

1/2 cup of parsley, finely diced

1/2 red pepper, finely diced

1 tsp. sea salt

pinch of cayenne pepper (oopsie, guess I didn't read too closely as I left the last two out)

Mix together. Form into patties. Dehydrate at 105 degrees for 4-8 hours.

Tim came and stole a bite these were so yummy. Guess what I'm having for dinner? mmmm....

If you don't have a juicer you can use shredded carrots. It will take longer to dehydrate and will change the consistency and flavor a bit, but its always good to work with what you have.

I am blessed in that I have been studying healthy diets for 19 years now and slowly have built up some nice tools. Some of them I've even got used. I got a $150 Excalibur dehydrator for $5 at a garage sale. :)
