Home-made veggie burgers
My mum gave us this idea at Christmas (though we found out later she had heard it from Anthony Worrall-Thompson). Simply take and finely chop all your leftover cooked veg, add a beaten egg and some additional mashed potato if needed, then fry with a little oil. We did this on Boxing Day with whatever we could salvage from my Mum's the day before.... and they were gorgeous !
So, as we had some leftover veg yesterday, including some mashed potato, I decided to have a go at a low-fat (and vegan) option, without the egg. Worried about them crumbling when fried, I baked them on a lightly greased tray... and they were lovely.
For tea, we had some lovely store-bought Spicy lentil & tomato soup, with a Food Doctor seed & grain bagel.

Not only does the food look great, but the plate is beautiful too! :)
That's great to go with a low-fat version...you can eat more that way! lol! :)
One thing about dieting is that (a) it makes you enjoy your food so much more and (b) it seems to make you want to photograph it all !
We're liking the burgers so much that today I made them from fresh, without waiting for leftover cooked veg. I mixed some sweetcorn in, and a little garlic, chili and curry powder - mmmmm.
