Hope you get back to blogging soon.<br /><br />Yes, dried peas, beans, legumes . . . and grains (including millet!) are a mainstay of my pantry. You can make a LOT of meals from stores like that with just a few added condiments. Hope you get some millet and give it a try.

I like to keep stuff like that in the pantry, so another option will be nice. I tried the green beans with dinner tonight, and they were great. I think that was my hubby's grandma used to cook green beans. Brings back fond memories of both of them. (Hubby and Grandma, not Grandma and green beans!) <br />It's been awhile since I've read blogs, it's nice to see what you've been up to.<br />~~LoriDirt Loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09218959840456660541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-16549798463050889812014-06-07T08:09:12.652-05:002014-06-07T08:09:12.652-05:00Joy - Thanks!

No, you do not get a "peanut-buttery" taste to the burgers. (Thankfully! I don't think I'd like that at all.) I'm wondering if it's in there more as a binder than anything else . . . seeing as how there's no egg in the recipe. You must be sure to mix all of the ingredients thoroughly 'cause who wants a peanut butter burger? I thought I had mine mixed up well when I spied a lump of peanut butter that had somehow been missed by my spoon. I knew I wouldn't appreciate chomping into a big lump of the stuff when eating the burger.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-14208014272677773282014-06-06T10:24:16.584-05:002014-06-06T10:24:16.584-05:00Ok, OK!

Bwahahahahaha!!!<br /><br />As for the millet burgers, I have to admit I was a bit turned off at the mention of the peanut butter. Does it taste "peanut-buttery"? Or is it just an added fat/protein to the mixture. I'll try the millet loaf and do a post of my own.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14436557172029575513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-43562866212370450052014-06-06T09:25:59.464-05:002014-06-06T09:25:59.464-05:00Susan - Hey, Carolyn . . . sounds as if you need t...Susan - Hey, Carolyn . . . sounds as if you need to provide a link to that post on making the beans with bacon grease.

(I use about a tablespoonful for the serving of beans enough for the two of us.) Saute some chopped onion in the bacon grease and then stir the beans back into that in the saucepan to warm well before serving. Bits of chopped bacon make it very special, but are not necessary.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-83007655220018650642014-06-06T08:41:53.371-05:002014-06-06T08:41:53.371-05:00Count me in, too!
