Grilled Rosemary Jalapeño Turkey Burgers

When deciding on our menus for the week this past weekend, my daughter asked if we could have burgers one night. Tonight was that night and I prepared regular beef burgers for her and turkey burgers for Dennis and me. For the turkey burgers, I decided to use fresh rosemary that I had in the…

Poblano, Jalapeño Turkey Burgers

Since it’s Memorial Day, and that seems to be the unofficial start to summer, I thought it would be a good night for a burger. I decided on turkey burgers … turkey burgers with a kick. I added a minced poblano pepper and a minced jalapeño pepper, along with minced garlic and shallot. The mini…

Brie Stuffed Burger

It’s Sunday and because it’s Sunday I thought it would be a good night to make hamburgers for dinner. It’s on the simple side and that’s what I wanted for tonight. I know Kylie enjoys hamburgers and Dennis does as well. Kylie’s second semester at CSUSM starts up tomorrow. She is actually looking forward to…

Rosemary Burger (Bun free) with Blue Cheese

I love the taste of rosemary, as well as the smell of rosemary. If I am out and about and spot a rosemary scented candle, I can’t seem to pass it up. Rosemary makes me think of fall, and as we know, fall is here. I decided to season my hamburgers tonight with fresh rosemary…

Blue Cheese Ranch Burgers

While I was in Trader Joe’s today, I saw my good friend, Karin. I was telling her that I was going to be making “ranch” burgers for dinner tonight and asked her opinion on what she thought would go with ranch. I had blue cheese in my cart, thinking blue cheese would pair well with…

Bison Burgers with Balsamic Grilled Onions

The Tastes of Thanksgiving Served on a Dinner Roll

I decided to make a little pre-Thanksgiving simple supper. I wanted most of the flavors of Thanksgiving on a slider. My thought process was this … For Thanksgiving dinner, you usually have turkey, stuffing, green beans, cranberries (plus mashed potatoes and some sort of sweet potato dish …. and if you’re at my house, acorn…

Butter Burgers topped with Sautéd Garlic Spinach

Tonight, we had burgers for dinner. As I was thinking of a recipe I could come up with, I remembered the smell of burgers when my Grandma Pete would cook them. She made a great burger. I remember her cooking them in butter, which gave me the idea for butter burgers. Not only did I…

Portobello Mushroom Burger

I actually ate my first portobello mushroom burger today. In my 51 years of life, I’m a bit ashamed to admit … I’ve not tried this amazing way to eat a burger until now.  This was a little bit like a party in my mouth – the flavors came together in just the right way.  After…

Raspberry Infused Turkey Burger

Tonight we had turkey burgers for dinner.  Instead of adding egg to bind my meat, I decided to use a raspberry dressing that was fat free, calorie free and sugar free. I wanted to add moisture to bind the meat and bread crumbs with the ingredients I chose to put in this burger, but wanted to…
