Last summer when I was living in the dorms at the University of Manchester in Manchester, England I ate the dorm food and it was quite awful. Most of it. But, some mornings at breakfast the rude cooks would place these square hasbrowny-looking, veggie filled concoctions on the grill. I don't know if they were fried or not, I really didn't know anything about them except that they called them, "vegetarian sausage patties". That is usually not something that perks my interest, but everything else was so bad that I gave them a try. They were so good I couldn't believe it. They were made up of what I think could have been rice, potatoes, carrots, broccoli, peppers and who really knows what else. The point is I have been craving these little things since I left in July. I have tried to google recipes, I've searched and searched numerous super markets, all to no avail. Until, last week when I stopped in front of the vegetarian frozen section. I'd had my eye on these veggie burgers for a while because they didn't have tofu in them. I thought they could be close, so I took a chance - they are a little expensive. This morning I made one. Then I made another. And I had to stop myself from eating the other two in the box. These Morning Star veggie burgers are not the real thing, but they are dang close. The weird thing is that they are made with some soy sauce, so they have a little taste like Chinese food - which I love. They have a lot of protein and not very many calories, also an added bonus! Take a walk on the wild side and eat these today, I can't wait to buy more!
