Wow, it has been a while since I posted one of these. I know…slacker… Last week my husband and I celebrated our tenth wedding anniversary. I tried to do a menu plan, but it totally got put by the wayside.
For the past several months, Graham and I have been going to the gym 2-3 nights a week. We have also strictly watched what we eat. I lost about 30 pounds so far, while Graham has lost 67! I am so proud of him! As much as I love cooking (mostly with cheese and butter), I am really trying to cook differently. Some days it is really hard, especially if all you want are burgers.
We got a cool indoor electric grill this weekend. Last night we tried it out by making turkey burgers. SO YUMMY! And so easy! It was made with four ingredients— one package of ground turkey, half a package of ranch dressing mix, a tablespoon of Mrs. Dash, and a slug of Worcestershire Sauce. Graham made 5 patties which we grilled for about 6 minutes per side. It would have been nice to actually grill out last night (since it was beautiful), but once we got home and realized that we had no charcoal, and a new toy to play with, our minds were set. The grill worked great--gave grill lines and all! And frankly, it was super easy to clean up. I wiped off the crud, and the whole plate can go in the dishwasher.

- Turkey burgers on whole wheat buns, veggies, baked beans
- Slow Cooker Butter Chicken with veggies and brown rice
