Typical burgers with a french onion soup twist! French onion mix added to the burger, and topped with a heap of caramelized onions and melty gooey mozzarella cheese, all on a toasty potato bun! – – These burgers are a definite must make again! Considering there are only a few more steps than making a plain burger, they were amazingly delicious! Now I use this pre-boxed lipton french onion soup mix (affiliate link), so it’s not entire “from scratch”. But it definitely saves some work, although if you’re a “from scratch” fan, I guarantee you can find a copycat recipe on pinterest!…

With these three burgers on your menu, you’re sure to impress! This is definitely a different twist on a classic burger, but really the main difference is the ground lamb. Everything else I typically have in my pantry. Make sure that you don’t over-mix the lamb, because you won’t want it to be tough. We served this with garlic butter roasted carrots and actually used what was left of the garlic butter in the…

It’s funny that sometimes I look at my own posts, and I realize that my favorites–either recipes, or reviews–don’t have posts yet. It makes sense in the grand scheme of things since I only started less than a year ago, but it’s funny to me that some of T’s and my’s favorite places don’t have dedicated posts. On the one hand they’re fun and local, but on the other we go there often enough that I feel like I shouldn’t take pictures every single time. So today, you get a post about a local hangout of ours–Mad Fox Brewery! It’s…

Here is my classic turkey burger recipe, with a little dijon thrown in for some flavor! I classify this recipe as a “simple” one since I have most of the ingredients around the house, and the ones I usually need to shop for include: ground turkey, gruyere, and scallions! Less than 5 ingredients, so I call simple. Just toss everything in a bowl, and make sure to mix together thoroughly, but only until just incorporated unless you want some tough burgers! I’ll let you in on my secret for well-cooked burgers when you’re making them on the stove! I like the…

So coming back from Iceland, I decided to do another round of hello fresh so that I wouldn’t be worried about grocery shopping and cooking and all that jazz when we were back. The first recipe we tried was a Dijon pork meal, that was satisfactory and I might post it at some point, but this juicy Lucy burger is definitely on my to-make-again list! This burger is more than your typical throw-it-on-the-grill burger, and definitely is schmancy enough to be like a restaurant burger, but it’s fairly straight forward to make. I’d pull this one out when you want that…

This recipe worked out great because I had pretty much everything in my fridge. It actually worked out great, one of those clean-out-the-fridge recipes! In general, though, I wouldn’t really call it that. This recipe is adapted from Holly’s Jalapeno Cheddar Burgers recipe on Spend with Pennies. Definitely tasty, though I had a few twists to the original. Firstly, I ended up using vegetable cream cheese. Now you only need regular cream cheese, but I think you could spruce this recipe up, or change out the center for something different! A chive cream cheese with some roasted garlic would make a great stuffer, or you could…

It’s pretty rare that I make a recipe from scratch. Most times I just browse pinterest until I’m drooling then pick the thing that is most drool-worthy that day. But these chicken burgers are quite tasty, and I’m pretty proud of them. Even more so because I snuck a veggie into the burger. Plus with homemade pesto, I feel like it’s complete. Making pesto feels so summery to me. Those big basil plants, snitching a few toasted pine nuts that cost way too much but are way too tasty. I use basil mostly, although sometimes I throw in some parsley…
