Made it out to the garden yesterday afternoon to find it overflowing with veggies! That is a huge ass bowl of greens. We’re going to be eating them all week!
Along with stir fry peas and regular peas (that you shell.) Sorry, my mind is drawing a blank on their real names. 😉
Plus a few green beans. There are lots of more green & yellow beans *almost* ready. I give them another day or two and then I’ll have a fridge full of beans!
I tried to incorporate some of this freshness into our Supper last night.
Besides veggies, I made turkey burgers for the first time EVER. They turned out amazing! I had a really bad experience subbing ground turkey for ground beef in tacos a few years ago and have avoided it ever since. But I think I actually used ground chicken in the tacos. Either way, I’m glad I gave it another shot (or not)!
I used Marisa’s recipe for Italian Turkey Burgers, doubling the ingredients since I had about a pound of turkey. I also added an egg & a handful of oats cuz that’s how I make my burgers. All worked like a charm!
Cooked them up in the frying pan over medium heat. They really browned nicely.
Stir-fried some fresh snow peas! Added a bit of hoisin sauce to the pan at the end.
Quick & easy dinner.
On a whole wheat bun with a smear of light mayo & lettuce. FYI: Burger patties worked out to approx. 150 cals.
Plus a side Caesar made with the fresh greens.
But the real star of the show as this delicious TART STRAWBERRY RHUBARB CRISP!!!! Oh yes, it was that good! 🙂 Recipe can be found here.
Back later tonight with a neat product review!
