Gluten Free Veggie Burger Salad with the Works!

Happy Monday, I hope you had a great weekend! The majority of my Saturday and Sunday were spent in a hockey rink as my son had several practices and scrimmages to prepare for his team's State Finals next weekend. In between shuttling back in forth to hockey rinks, I squeezed in house work and Ironman training. This left little time for cooking, so we did the take-out routine all weekend! I don't mind doing this from time to time, but 3 days in a row is not standard. I decided to get the family back on track today with healthy eating by declaring that Meatless Monday dinners were back on our weekly meal plan. So tonight we are having this delicious Gluten Free Veggie Burger Salad with the Works!

Dr. Praeger's All American Veggie Burgers

I recently discovered Dr. Praeger's All American Veggie Burgers  in the freezer section at our grocery store. I have been a long time fan of veggie burgers, but the Dr. Praeger's brand caught my eye as they are gluten free, soy free, kosher, and vegan. They also have the Non-GMO Project Verification and each burger is packed with 25 grams of protein. Most importantly, they taste fabulous! They are the perfect ingredient for my Gluten Free Veggie Burger Salad with the Works!
