Day 32 of 90

Rest day from CF. No insightful things to say.

Food:
Breakfast - 2 eggs, 3 bacon
Lunch - Wenda Salad
Snack - cashews, celery, radishes
Dinner - Turkey burger, roasted cauliflower and brussel sprouts, and sweet potato fries
Snack - Apple with Almond butter - yum! :)

Turkey Burger
1lb - 94% lean ground turkey
1 portobello mushroom
green onions
2 tbsp olive oil
salt
pepper
parsley
1 tsp worshire sauce

1. Clean out the scales of the mushroom. Chop into small pieces. Do the same with the onion.
2. Mix all ingredients together
3. Put mix in fridge for 30 minutes and let firm
4. Form patties and cook on stove (about 6 minutes a side)


I topped mine with a piece of bacon and guacamole. I used to put munster cheese and mustard on it. If you eat bread, an english muffin is a good choice, to keep it light, and so that the burgers taste comes out. I've never eaten this burger with a bun. :)

Also, even if you don't like mushrooms, you can't really tell they are in there. Even with kinda larger chunks of mushroom. The point of the portobello mushroom is to keep moisture in your burger. One of the problems with really lean meat is that it dries out when cooked. Mushroom solves all the problems :)
