Burger and Fries

After a crazy day I had a craving for a burger and fries, so that was what we made tonight but just a little bit healthier. We had some Bison Burgers in the freezer from Trader Joes so we quickly thawed those and threw them on the grill pan. Although, we could have grilled tonight it was in the Mid 30’s here! I am not a huge fan of buns so I ate mine with just a slice of cheddar and a bit of ketchup.

 

 

Instead of unhealthy french fries, I opted for some chopped raw veggies with a quick White Bean Dip. I mixed together:

Ingredients:

1 Clove Garlic

1 Can of Cannellini Beans

2 Tbsp of Chicken Broth

Olive Oil

Salt/Pepper

Thyme

Dried Cranberries

 

Directions:

1. Blend in a food processer until smooth, stir in thyme and 1/4 cup of dried cranberries.
2. Chill in fridge for a bit and serve with pita chips, veggies, or bread.

 

 

  

Tonight’s plans include wine, magazine reading, relaxing and watching the Olympics. A perfect night in my book! The wine we choose was a 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon from The Holdings. A really nice cab with lots of forward fruit.
