Summer Recipe from the No-Killin-Grillin Section of Don't Eat Me!

Hey Guys - Since it is the height of summer, I thought I'd share a recipe from the No-Killin Grillin section of Don't Eat Me! for you guys to enjoy! This is the best and biggest veggie-burger you will ever make! Easy and fun!

The Big Stack

This is so much better than the poor, cruel excuse for the fast food burger that it rhymes with that I double dare you to make it! You will literally feel yourself evolving as you eat!!! Two no-beef patties, not-so-secret-sauce, lettuce, no-cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun!

8 no-beef patties (recommend Morning Star Farms vegan "grillers")
8 non-dairy American cheese slices (recommend Tofutti brand American style slices)
1 package of 8 sesame seed buns
1/4 of a head iceburg lettuce cut into thin shreds
1 tsp. dried minced onion, re-hydrated with 1 tsp. water for at least ten minutes pior to serving
24 hamburger dill pickle slices

NOT-SO-SECRET-SAUCE
1/2 cup egg-free mayo (recommend Vegenaise)
1 Tbsp. Chinese duck sauce
1/2 tsp. yellow mustard
1 tsp. pickle relish
2 pinches salt

1. Fire up the grill as you would for regular burgers
2. Combine all ingredients for not-so-secret-sauce in a small bowl. Whisk thoroughly and set aside.
3. Defrost no-beef patties until soft. Grill no-beef patties about 3-4 minutes on each side. Place a slice of no-cheese on top of each patty until it starts to melt. Remove to a warming plate.
4. To assemble The Big Stack: spread bottom bun with not-so-secret-sauce. Top with one cheeseburger patty, a sprinkle of minced onions, 3 pickle slices and a small bunch of lettuce shreds. Take another bun bottom (sound kinky) and stack it on top of what you have so far. spread this bottom with sauce and add another patty, onions, pickles and lettuce. Spread top bun with sauce and place on top.
I think you'll be loving it!

Important Petition to Help Animals on Factory Farms!

Hey Everyone - I was recently made aware of a fantastic petition that needs signatures to help animals on factory farms. This petition is asking for it to be mandatory by law that there are surveillance cameras placed in all slaughterhouses, factory farms and dairy farms. This would have an enormous impact on preventing so much of the abuse that occurs in these places. It would also make the prosecution of people who abuse these animals so much easier. I urge you all to please sign this important petition at www.thepetitionsite.com . When you get to the site, go to the care2 search engine at the top right hand corner of the page and type in "Put surveillance cameras in all slaughterhouses." Thank you!

Joy to the World!

Hey everyone - if any of you all out there ever doubted that animals have feelings and emotions just like we do, I think this video will change your mind. It is hard to think about eating another being who could enjoy the sound of music so much that they actually kick up their heels and dance!! Just click on the link to our facebook fanpage to watch the video of me and Heidi Harris singing to the cows at The Woodstock Farm Sanctuary!

Come to the June Jamboree at The Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary!

Hey Everyone - it is June, which means it is time for the June Jamboree at The Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary, which is taking place this weekend, Saturday and Sunday 6/12 and 6/13, from 11am to 5pm! If you live in the NY/Conn./Mass. area, this is a really fun festival that is great for the whole family. There will be a puppet show and a castle bounce for the kids, yummy vegan food, great live music, and of course a chance to visit with the rescued farm animals!! Furthermore, our own Christen Napier's band, Cutleri, will be performing at the Jamboree on Saturday. The three lovely ladies who make up Cutleri are the one and only sirens of silverware, and they have been nice enough to invite me (Robin) up to play a couple songs with them at the show!
