Mesclun Greens with Burger

and Mushroom Sauce

 

Dinner

This meal is easily adaptable to any appetite by adjusting the serving size of the baked potato and the number of burger patties.

Served

Mesclun greens have a great light bitter taste and are refreshingly served with mandarins and tossed in a fruity dressing. The vegie burgers with potato and mushroom sauce provide the substantial part of this dinner.

This light dinner is easily prepared especially since the Mesclun greens and the mushrooms are always available in my natural food store and I have always a couple of vegie burger packages in the freezer and Russet baking potatoes and onions in the pantry.
