Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
Spanakopita Turkey Burgers with Easy Homemade Tzatziki Sauce are a fun fusion of basic burgers and Greek Spanakopita for a fresh new weeknight meal idea.
It’s very rare that we actually make burgers at home; they usually take the backseat to grilled steak or barbequed chicken. If we’re craving a burger we usually hit up Smashburger (if my hubby is choosing) or Shake Shack (if it’s my turn to pick!).…
These Greek Salad Bowls with Spiced Lamb Burgers are full of bold flavors, such as feta cheese, Kalamata olives, garlicky yogurt dressing, and spiced lamb burgers! I’ve been to visit Mike at work at the Pentagon a couple times now. As cool as it is to get a private tour of the DOD’s HQ from my hubby, my favorite part is always lunch....
Happy Spring, friends! I hope you’re able to enjoy spring-like weather and get outside for some fresh air today to celebrate. Or if the weather isn’t quite so spring-like where you are, go make a nice big leafy green salad with tons of fruit and veggies…it’s guaranteed to make you happy!...
For nearly everyone I know, February is their least favorite month (even my sis, and it’s her birthday month!). By the time February rolls around, the excitement of starting a new year has worn off and so has the novelty of snow…and the need to constantly bundle up and chug soup to stay warm. Green grass, leafy trees, and color in general are still a long way off and everything just seems kind-of blah. I’ve got something that’s full of excitement and energy to warm you up on a cold February day…how about a chat with Denise Austin, some fabulous fitness motivation, and her recipe […]...
In the collage above, on the left, top to bottom: 2 Secrets for the Best Burgers from Oh, Sweet Basil; Red Quinoa and Black Bean Veggie Burgers from The View From Great Island; Asian BBQ Burger with Sriracha Mayo from Flavor Mosaic; and Salmon Burgers with Spicy Hoisin Mayo from Noble Pig. In the collage above, on the right, top to bottom: Cauliflower Lentil Veggie Burger with Spicy Turmeric Aioli from Tasty Yummies; Shrimp Burgers with Scallion Mayo from An Edible Mosaic; and Garden Salad Feta-Stuffed Burgers from Diethood. Everyone who I’ve asked is serving some kind of burger on the 4th of July! This got me […]...
Say you tell someone you just had an amazing burger… The burger itself was perfectly seasoned and it was finished off with great mix of sweet/salty/savory toppings. They ask what the toppings were, and you casually reply peanut butter, banana, and bacon....
I am of the mind that there is nothing better than a good burger (which, despite my love affair with veggies, is probably the number one reason I could never be a vegetarian; and yes, I realize that there are some fabulous meat-free burgers out there!). Maybe the only thing better than a good burger is a plate of piping hot Buffalo wings done right....
Shrimp Burgers with Scallion Mayo is a fun way to switch up a classic burger! Everyone loves a good beef burger, but sometimes it’s fun to switch things up and make them out of something else. If you’ve never had a shrimp burger, you are in for a real treat!...
Pizza Burgers combine two classic favorite family-friendly, crow-pleasing foods for an instant winner that’s easy to whip up for a weeknight dinner! Have you fired up the grill yet this year? Where I live, we’ve had an unseasonably warm winter and now spring. (And I don’t mean warm-for-upstate-New-York…we have antifreeze in our blood and think 45F weather in January is a heat wave. I mean warm. Summertime warm, with temps reaching the upper 80’s at times.)...
I recently received a copy of Chef Susan Irby’s cookbook, Substitute Yourself Skinny. This book does a good job of taking classic, familiar recipes and remaking them into lower calorie versions of themselves. Before I tell you more about the book I just wanted to tell you my thoughts on fat-free/low-fat/full-fat ingredients. Many of the recipes in this book call for fat-free ingredients, such as milk, yogurt, cream cheese, cottage cheese, etc. I rarely use fat-free ingredients. Substituting fat-free ingredients for full-fat ingredients is a fantastic way to whittle away calories in a dish, but in my experience most fat-free items are tasteless (for me […]...
