Veggie Burgers

We are BIG fans of burgers in this house (who isn't?!) so we love trying different meats, toppings, combinations, and buns. We had these veggie burgers last night for supper and they were awesome! We've had them before, and each time they were great. Really healthy and really easy.

And tonight for our pizza night, instead of our usual pepperoni/sausage, I'm going to try all veggies and play around w/ cream cheese fore the sauce. I may add chicken, I haven't decided yet.
