I have come to love fresh avocado. Once a week or so, Kevin and I love to enjoy a freshly made guacamole along with homemade salsa and chips. I no longer consider the storebought super-green stuff real, true “guacamole.” I’m not sure what’s in that stuff, but I’ll leave it on the shelf. Anyways, all that to […]
Herb Turkey Burger
I’ve heard many people say lean ground meat–especially turkey–can turn into really dry burgers. Yes, it’s true that the added fat content can result in a really juicy, extra delicious burger. BUT, I don’t like to clean up splattered grease, nor do I take pleasure in sopping up the fat from my cooked burger before […]
Sandwich Buns (a la Bread Maker)
I am a loyal fan of the Light Brioche Buns recipe from Annie, but on the day I decided to make these delicious Homemade Sloppy Joes for our small group to share, I didn’t have the time. I opted for a bread-maker alternative, and I’m SO glad I did. Having this little number in my […]
Spicy Beef Burgers

Before a couple years ago, I never realized burgers could be so delicious, so versatile, and so exciting. The possibilities are endless! We have burgers and (some form of) […]
Light Brioche Burger Buns

Spicy Ranch Patty Melts
Yesterday was a long hard day. I didn’t really want to spend an hour and a half in the kitchen making dinner but I am SO GLAD I did. This was on the menu plan and I was craving a good burger and fries (minus the grease and grossness). Because I had no hamburger buns […]
Burgers with Garlic-Black Pepper-Parmesan Sauce
Once again, I followed through on Rachael Ray’s “What’s For Dinner Tonight.” I am providing you all with the full recipe but you must know that I whipped this up rather last minute and didn’t have time to roast the tomatoes and because I prepared the sauce from memory I forgot completely about the balmasic […]
