Vegans?

[BlackCurtains]

So the best I could become is a pescatarian.

That's what I am, although I find I'm eating less and less fish too. I've had a can of salmon in the pantry for a couple of months now. It used to be that I could eat a can a week! I do eat a lot of vegan food too and I love tofu!

I have a simple black bean "burger" recipe that's vegan. It's delicious and very filling

-1/2 medium sized onion, chopped and cooked (or more or less depending on how much you like onion)
-1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed (I have also made these with black-eyed peas and pinto beans, but the black beans were much tastier)
-1/2 cup of flour
-1 tsp garlic powder
-1 tsp onion powder
-1/2 tsp seasoned salt
-oil to coat the pan

Mash the beans, I use a potato masher on a cutting board. Add the flour and other ingredients. Mix into a dough. Form into patties and fry until crispy! Easy.

I get about 5 or 6 patties out of one can depending on how big I make them. I like to serve them on some lettuce with tomato and avocado, yum. They're even good cold out of the fridge!

I've been vegetarian for about 11 and 1/2 years now... would love to go vegan, but it's not that easy in iceland. vegan products, when available, tend to be very expensive, so it's just not possible unless you're swimming in money.

I love to eat vegan foods whenever possible, though!
