Black Bean & Squash Veggie Burgers

We always have people with a variety of eating preferences & palates attending our BBQ's. In response, I've always had fun experimenting with flavors and making new burgers for our get-togethers. This time I want to share one that was tried and tested with our family recently and is sure to be a hit at your summer BBQ's. This soy-free veggie burger is packed with flavor, that plays off the herby cilantro and spicy BBQ sauce, topped with an avocado slice on a sesame seed bun.

Spicy Sriracha Honey Cashews


Now that the school year has started, I thought it would be a good idea to post a healthy snack recipe for lunch boxes or afternoon snacking. I made these awhile back for an afternoon movie marathon snack...between Kishore and my Sister, they polished them off and then proceeded to asked if there was anymore! Now that being said, be prepared to make more pretty soon after the first batch! This is a great anytime, anywhere healthy snack. The cashews are lightly pan roasted, then covered with Spicy Sriracha Powder and drizzled with Local Raw Honey.
Here is my recipe for Spicy Sriracha Honey Cashews.



For the Spicy Sriracha Powder:
Makes 4 oz.
Ingredients:

4 Dried Red Chilies
2 Tblsp Dried Minced Garlic
2 Tblsp Dried Minced Onion
1 Tblsp Red Chili Powder
1 Tbslp Cayenne Powder
1 Tbslp Himalayan Pink Sea Salt

Grind into a medium fine powder.
Store in a clean glass container for up to 3 months.


For the Spicy Cashews

Ingredients:

1 cup Raw Cashews
1 Tblsp Spicy Sriracha Powder
2 Tblsp Raw Honey

2. Add Chili Oil and stir till fragrant, about a minute.

Packed and ready to go for lunch! :)

  1. I love Sriracha sauce introduced to me by a Malaysian student when I was at Uni. Its had a firm place in my kitchen since, I love the sound of these Sriracha honey spiced cashews and would so love to make some as my movie snack too, I just have to try and remember the recipe instead of opting for nachos or popcorn. Thanks for sharing your Sriracha powder recipe too, I can see if doused on potato wedges, yum
