So I'm on a vegetarian kick for the past 2 weeks (save for a cunning chicken sandwich at Wawa. it was calling to me. i was weak). Last night I drank too many girlie drinks and woke up with a wicked hangover. As I walked home from class, I pondered my lunch options. I ended up hankering for patty melt. Ah, the patty melt. The love child of a grilled cheese and a hamburger. So I threw together a vegetarian friendly patty melt. It was the greatest thing ever.

Veggie Patty Melt
2 slices Ezekiel 4:9 bread, sesame http://www.foodforlife.com/
2 slices 365 organic colby jack cheese
1 Morning Star spicy southwestern black bean burger
Earth Balance soy vegan butter stuff http://www.earthbalancenatural.com/
thinly sliced onion


cook the burger in a frying pan.

butter the bread.

when the burger is done, clean off the pan and arrange the sandwich, bread, cheese, onion, burger, onion, cheese bread.

cook until the cheese is melted and the the bread is crispy. so fucking good.

Did I just explain how to arrange and cook a patty melt? I think I did.

Today was the first time I used Earth Balance for a grilled cheese and it was wonderful. It actually cooked better than butter. And it's yummy. And its organic.
