Repeat Offender: Sweet Potato Burger

by Nicole on November 9, 2010

Yesterday’s post started off so negative, I need to not do that today. I feel like all of the annoying things I had in my head all came true, which my sister and I refer to as “secreting” ourselves. (When everything you don’t want to happen so you think about it so much and then it actually happens…)

Like when I walked into school and one of my students just informed me he’d just puked in the cafeteria, which meant he wasn’t coming on our trip today, which later meant we didn’t have enough money for the trip.

Or when our bus for our trip came 30 minutes late, which meant we missed our group’s assigned time and our tour was only about 12 minutes long.

How about when the bus driver didn’t know how to get to the Queens Museum of Art and drove up to the Hall of Science and said, “we’re here”. Nope. Sorry, we’re not.

Last, was working until 5:30 and not being able to find a parking spot, so I had to “make up” one.

So, I am going to “secret” myself in the good way and say, today is going to be a great day (even if I do have to work till 8:30 pm.)

In my continuation of my  ”Let’s look back and see what I made a while ago” series…last night was sweet potato burgers. Very filling and satisfying. For some reason I was craving these..maybe because I didn’t want eggs for dinner again. I added some spinach this time and left out the carrots. I also added 2 tbsp of garbanzo bean flour and baked them in the oven.

I’m off to head to school for a great school day and 26 successful parent teacher conferences!

Do you ever “secret” yourself?

Oh wow, what a day. Those “burgers” sound great though. Love sweet potatoes. I made a quinoa veggie cake/burger using sweet potatoes and cannellini beans that reminds me of this.

Yikes!! Sounds like a rough day :(

I never heard the phrase “secret” myself. I call that “jinxing myself” usually.

On a better note…the sweet potato burgers look awesome. Never thought to make sweet potato burgers, what a great idea!

OMG, I secret myself more than you know!!! My sister yells at me for doing it because whenever I over stress about stuff it always happens.

Hope the conferences went well!
