Lunch today included lots of pretty colors.
I topped a big bowl of spring mix with celery, carrots, two MorningStar Farms spicy black bean burgers and pomegranate dressing. I absolutely love using black bean burgers as a salad topper. They add so much flavor and the punch of protein helps fill me up!
The dressing I used on my salad was Marzetti’s simply dressed pomegranate vinaigrette that I bought on sale at Publix on Sunday.
I love this stuff and always stock up whenever I see a deal!
If you scrunched your nose up at the thought of black bean burgers and pomegranate salad dressing, I don’t blame you. It sounds like a totally bizarre combination, but oddly enough, it worked. I was craving black bean burgers but wanted a little sweetness in my salad, so I decided to combine the two and was pleasantly surprised.

I love the morningstar corndogs. I am actually a vegetarian and eat all of their products but that one is my fave because it makes an easy meal and my husband didn’t know they were veggie corn dogs for 6 months!
Spicy Black Bean used to be my fave until I tried the Asian Veggie Burger and now I’m hooked on those! I even make special trips to Publix for them because Winn Dixie doesn’t carry the Asian flavor!!!
I really like the veggie burger but have never tried the black bean burger. I am sure it is great,
