These falafel patties are actually made with pinto beans and include jack cheese and cumin. They’re easy to make and delicious. We loved the avocado spread, too – we served them up with leftover soup from last night. The patties would be great homemade veggie burgers, served on a whole wheat bun. Just before dinner I whipped up these shortbread, which are thin and crisp and contain ground rolled oats. They’re really tasty – they remind us of an oat topping on a fruit crisp. I added a note to this entry on the cheese we had before dinner, because it’s really nice.

Wine: Chumeia 2003 Dante Dusi Zinfandel (Paso Robles, California). Still good, with lots of fruit.
mmmm cheese mmmm
These would go good with the southwestern tomato soup from the current FC issue. I need to try them. Really all I need to see is the word “southwestern” and “avocado” and I’m sold.
