From the depths of the refrigerator. . .

Veggie Burger Tacos
We're gearing up to complete the final post-Sandy repairs on our kitchen. In other words, I'm trying to use up as many ingredients as possible and relocate less. Today's recipe came almost entirely from the refrigerator, but hey we'll move that too.

Corn tortillas
Veggie burgers
celery staks or any sort of crunchy "green" (fennel, endive, cabbage, romaine lettuce...)
hummus, sesame oil, and/or tahini, vinegar

Dressing: whisk together the 2-3 tbs of hummus with 1 tbs of vinegar.
In a skillet, heat your veggie burger, turn the heat up high for a bit at the end and get a crisp edge.
Meanwhile, toss sliced celery pieces in the dressing.
Remove the veggie burger, and warm the corn tortilla.
Turn the heat down low and sprinkle a few drops of water in the pan then cover the pan or the tortilla will quickly dry out.

Cut your veggie burger in half, place on tortilla with salad mix, enjoy!
