It was a long day at school! Lots of changes were made and things were pretty busy. I made it through though, and I made it through a meeting that lasted until 5pm. I was rewarded for my long day with dinner at Northstar Cafe – one of my favorite restaurants.
Northstar is a healthy, local restaurant with tons of fun things to order. I always stick to my favorite – the Northstar burger. This burger is made of brown rice, black beans and beats. It is AMAZING!
Check out my full recap and review of the restaurant here!
Put together:
I recently found a recipe that claims to have recreated this meatless burger masterpiece so I plan on trying it soon!
Gaining Green Update:
This dinner was planned before the challenge began and it totally fits our going out criteria – having fun with friends (especially friends I haven’t seen a lot lately!) and eating good food you couldn’t make better at home! I hate going out to eat and having a so-so meal that you could make better or more healthy at home. What a waste! We use going out to dinner as a time to have fun with friends or family, try different foods or celebrate something!
That burger looks great, Can’t wait until you try to make it, and can share your recipe!
Oh what I wouldn’t give to have a restaurant like that. Hope to hear your recipe results in comparison to that “burger”!
yum – it looks great! i bet there are beets in there… i can’t wait to hear about your recipe review.
