Bacon and Cheese Stuffed Burgers

Not much longer until we won’t be grilling every night. I love burgers when they have lots of stuff on them and in them. Bacon, cheese, and onions of course are a favorite. I usually have fried onions on hand to top the burgers with but this time I needed to cook some onions to…

Hamburgers with Balsamic Vegetables

Day 26 –  I am keeping track of the days on here mostly for my own sanity. Some days it seems like nothing has changed and other days it seems like nothing will ever be the same. I had an “I don’t want to day” the other day. I went to bed early and layed…

The Best Oven Baked French Fries with Balsamic French Fry Dip

Black Bean and Corn Quinoa Burgers

I write my menu plan about a month at a time. This is becoming a bit difficult for me with the change in food choices. I am truly trying to stretch myself in cooking and eating but I have already purchased a bunch of chicken and sausage so I am going to try to figure…
