Mushroom Burger, Sweet Potato Frites, Carnival Squash

I didn't need to grocery shop today, but finished interviewing somebody (I am an alum interviewer for high school students applying to several universities that I attended) and briefly stopped by Whole Foods Market to get tofu. In this week's cooking class, we are using tofu, and it helps to freeze the water-packed (not the shelf-stable type) tofu then defrost it; it adds to the texture and helps the tofu to pick up additional flavor. Anyway, while I was there, I saw that they were selling a new item in their prepared foods area, portabella mushroom burgers. I picked two up.

Yesterday at Trader Joe's, they were sampling these tasty sweet potato fries ("sweet potato frites") - the sampling convinced me, and I brought home a bag. So, dinner tonight was a baked carnival squash, the frites, the burger on whole wheat bread with a slice of Green Zebra heirloom tomato and mustard, and chickpeas. I much preferred yesterday's meal but still today's was simple and pretty good!
