Buffalo Chickpea Sliders

January 27, 2014 by Erica

Buffalo Chickpea Sliders

Who’s ready for some vegan football food?!

Well, vegan + optional gratuitous amounts of cheese. The best of both worlds, in my opinion.

Buffalo Chickpea Sliders

Last week I posted quinoa burgers, and this week, we’re doing yet another veggie burger. It’s so easy to get on a food kick and want to try out endless variations, and that’s exactly what’s happening here! This time I really wanted vegan burgers… mostly because I end up eating a bunch of the dough straight from the food processor (and I bet you do the same!), so might as well leave out the raw egg, right? Right. And luckily, it’s not at all necessary here – these babies have no trouble holding together with just some flax egg magic.

But like I mentioned, I topped those vegan burgers with some serious cheese. Blue cheese dressing, to be exact. It’s the same lightened-up blue cheese dressing I used on last year’s buffalo brussels potato skins. This stuff is just too good to be allowed! I couldn’t get enough on this burger, clearly.

To me, there’s nothing that says football food quite like that buffalo wing flavah. Minus the wing part, of course. I think I’ve had wings maybe twice in my life and, well, I’m not into the actual wings. Too messy, and too much work for too little actual food! Meat on the bone is just not my thing, I guess. I could never have been a cavewoman! Beans and veggies, on the other hand – now that I can get behind.

Easy Quinoa Burgers

Easy Quinoa Burgers

Can I get an amen for Friday?

I know this is the second week back from the holidays, but I’m still feeling like the 5-day work week is pretty brutal. I deeefinitely got used to working just a day here and there over Christmas and New Year’s, and these endless 5-day weeks stretching from here to Memorial Day are so unwelcome. Just the thought makes me want to curl up in my robe and slippers and take a nap.

Actually, pretty much all thoughts make me want to do that. I am sleepy with a side of lazy, and the fact that I’m always freezing just makes my robe that much more appealing. Mmm fluffy robe. Can I wear that thing to work? That might make my week better…

Anyway, in addition to the weekend bringing not-work, I am also excited for this weekend because we are getting our engagement photos taken! We’re planning on doing them mostly outside (brrr! can I wear my robe?) and had to postpone last weekend because of weather, which was disappointing. This weekend we’re going to show up looking our best and let our photographer work her magic! Magically make us not look awkward, that is. Fingers crossed that we get some good shots!

But enough about engagement photos, let’s talk about quinoa! It’s in the blog name, after all.

Cayenne Portobello Burgers with Herbed Goat Cheese Spread

 Cayenne Portobello Burgers with Herbed Goat Cheese Spread

Have you ever had a portobello burger before? Probably.

But have you ever had a cayenne portobello burger with herbed goat cheese?

 Cayenne Portobello Burgers with Herbed Goat Cheese Spread

Ohhh my goodness. There’s really nothing like it.

I have a lot of firsthand experience with portobello burgers and sandwiches that are pretty “meh.” Ordering one at a restaurant really seems to be a toss-up: it’s either mind-blowingly delicious or flavorless and underwhelming. Well, I have the antidote to flavorless and underwhelming: cayenne + goat cheese.
