That's too funny!!Good morning!
Becky - Great pics as usual.
Tonight we're having Creole Steak, yellow rice and broccoli.
Have a good one!
I'm feeling a bit better, starting popping a couple of aleve a day & that's helping. 
So of course we realized we need to be dropping some pounds!!!! 
So I've got to tighten up the meals around here! Tonight will be salmon or halibut. I had Maple glazed salmon on my mind but I guess that's a NO-GO on that! Any of my dieting friends have any good ideas for me??
If I get myself to the store, I'll take a look at the price for you.
There was a whole 30 Minute Meal episode once all about Rachael Ray's old dog, Boo. It was all people-food that Boo loved. One of them was a smoky chicken patty. I make it with ground turkey instead. She called them Boo Patties and so do I
Here's the recipe:
There was a whole 30 Minute Meal episode once all about Rachael Ray's old dog, Boo. It was all people-food that Boo loved. One of them was a smoky chicken patty. I make it with ground turkey instead. She called them Boo Patties and so do I
1 1/2 pounds ground chicken breast
1 tablespoon smoked sweet Hungarian paprika, available on spice aisle in small cans*, a palmful
1 1/2 tablespoons grill seasoning blend (recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning by McCormick)
1/4 to 1/3 cup chopped parsley, a couple of handfuls of leaves, chopped
1/2 medium yellow skinned onion
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the bowl
8 slices sandwich white or whole-wheat bread
2 to 3 tablespoons butter, softened
2 cups chopped baby spinach, watercress or arugula (Boo would skip the greens)
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Place chicken in a bowl and add the smoked paprika, grill seasoning and parsley to it. Using a hand held grater or microplane, grate the onion into the chicken. (Boo liked onion juice and its flavor, but she did not like big pieces of onion). Add the garlic (Boo LOVED garlic!) and mix to combine. Make a mini patty, the size of a quarter, and cook it up, a minute on each side, to taste and check seasonings. If you want it really smoky, like Boo, you can adjust the seasonings accordingly. Drizzle the chicken mixture with about 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and form 4 large thin patties then place them in the pan. Cook patties 5 minutes on each side. Toast bread slices and spread liberally with softened butter. Serve patties on buttered toast with some chopped dark greens.
I never serve this on buttered toast. Just whatever hamburger bun I have in the freezer
It's a very lean and yummy burger!! Also, I use plain paprika, not sweet, in the recipe. I can't seem to find it around here.

I just found that using ground chicken made it VERY bland. We eat ground turkey a lot and we like it
Just 2 shelves? Amateurs, I have a full bookcase, a closet and 3 boxes
