Thursday night Ideas

Just a couple of ideas for you as you head into the weekend.

Tired of deli meat sandwiches?  I was looking for an lunch options while shopping at Trader Joe’s.  Always been a sucker for black bean burgers and went on the hunt in the freezer section.  No BB burgers in sight, but veggie burgers caught my eye.

I skeptically chose Dr. Praegers California Veggie burgers.  I mean how good can a frozen burger made of veggies be?  Hmmmm

 

Directions say:

Broil 8-10 minutes on each side until browned.  Easy enough!

I placed a slice of cheddar cheese on one side during the last two minutes. Then added my avocado spread from yesterday.  Bring in Udi’s bread and a touch of honey mustard—DELISH!

So let’s recap that one more time:

  • Dr. Praegers CA Veggie Burger-broil 8-10 minutes each side
  • Slice of cheddar cheese (last 2 minutes)
  • 2 slices of Udis Bread
  • Avocado spread
  • Lettuce
  • Honey Mustard

Wanna break out of your lunch time rut?  Give the veggie burger a try!

You probably laughed at my rice cake and Almond Butter idea the other day, BUT the kiddos tried it today and LOVED it!  (fyi: I buy the brown rice cakes, but get the caramel flavor)  Today I decided to join them and even spruce mine up a bit:

Added dried apricots to the top of mine (of course from TJ’s).  The perfect sweet and salty combination!!!

Here comes the weekend…XO
