Rosemary, Garlic & Bacon Chicken Burgers
Rosemary, Garlic & Bacon Chicken Burgers are packed with flavor yet light and almost more satisfying than a beef burger. You use this lovely rosemary and garlic mayo as a spread on the bun and inside the burger making it extra moist and juicy. I like to top the burgers with arugula, but you could substitute lettuce. I like the peppery, crunchy texture of arugula and this it pairs well with the flavors of the chicken burger. The recipe can be found here. Start by cooking the bacon according to package instructions. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain the excess grease and set aside. The recipe calls for 1 slice of bacon per burger, but you can make more and add as much as you like. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, rosemary, and garlic. Set aside. If you are looking for a lighter option, use … Continue reading

Labor Day Grilling
Labor Day Grilling It’s time to fire up the grill for your Labor Day celebration! I plan to spend the day outside enjoying the weather with family and friends. Whatever you plan to do, I hope you enjoy some delicious food and get good use of your grill before cooler weather hits. It’s the perfect day for grilling and a picnic. I have a handful of grilling ideas and side dish suggestions for you to try to have the perfect spread. Let’s start with the meat! Brats – there are so many brat varieties available, you are sure to find something for everyone on your guest list. My favorite is the Chicken Fajita Brat found at the Chef’s Counter of your local Festival Foods. Other varieties available include Philly Cheese Chicken, Octoberfest, Jalapeno Cheddar, Wild Rice, and more! Don’t forget the fresh brat buns from the bakery! Burgers – probably the most popular food to grill. Plus, burgers … Continue reading

Weekend Nosh and Feasts
We wanted a simple meal for our Friday night dinner that we knew would run late with everyone traveling to the cabin after work and decided that we would do a grilled cheese sandwich celebrating the flavors of summer. The luscious Minnesota grown tomatoes caught our eye and we settled on Caprese Grilled Cheese Sandwiches on sourdough bread. Rather than toasting the bread slices we buttered the outside of the sandwich and placed on a griddle to make them golden brown and layered sliced fresh tomatoes, fresh basil leaves and thick slices of a Mozzarella ball sprinkled with some Kosher salt. We were feeding a crowd so to speed things up we placed the assemble sandwiches on a baking sheet and covered with heavy foil and placed in the oven at 350 degrees to melt the cheese. We sliced avocados to have them available for those that chose to … Continue reading

Breakout the bun!
Time to breakout the bun and enjoy some great burgers. Burgers are an easy dinner solution and so much better when you make them at home! First up is our Guacamole Burger, we think Guacamole is always welcome on the table and we like it chunky with nice large pieces of avocado. This burger is served with bacon slices and we think the easiest way to cook bacon is in the oven. We placed our bacon slices on racks on a baking sheet and baked at 350 degrees until cooked thoroughly. If you’re looking for a ground turkey burger this is our fav – this Pesto Turkey Ciabatta Burger is delicious and you may substitute the ground turkey with ground chicken. Our Juicy Lucy recipe is cheesy and fabulous, we Minnesotans love our Juicy Lucys. We use Tilamook Cheddar a wonderfully rich and tasty cheddar that melts easily. Our Tickler Bacon … Continue reading
