It’s finally here. We’re down to the finally 7 days before school lets out for the summer for my kiddo and I honestly thing that at this point, I’m more excited than she is. I just want to get through the next few days and have the freedom of summer ahead of us. That being said, I’m also in the throes of getting beach-bum ready. And that means watching what I’m eating and doing all the more.

With my focus on all that, and summer being the season of snacks around here, I decided to make some fun Burger Bites! These Burger Bites are so good too. Perfect for a snack sort of light summer friendly meal or quick appetizer. They start out with a burger meatball paired with all the burger classics; tomato, lettuce, pickle, cheese, and of course a tater tot!…

4 Ingredient Veggie Burgers

Maybe that’s because the one time that I attempted doing it myself, many many years back, it didn’t turn out so wall. Or maybe it’s because most recipes out there have a long list of ingredients and detailed instructions. Not these 4 Ingredient Veggie Burgers!

These 4 Ingredient Veggie Burgers are vegetarian, gluten-free, and vegan to boot! Even if that weren’t all enough, they are made with just 4. Count them - 4 ingredients. Most of which I would consider being pantry staples too…

Skinny Bacon Cheeseburger Dip

Gameday, gameday, gameday - oh my! The big gameday is just around the corner and honestly… I can’t wait! Not that I really follow or watch football a whole damn lot. But, I still enjoy THE BIG ONE and all of the fun gameday food that comes along with it. The commercials and halftime performance don’t hurt either.

It’s about this time every year that I start to go through and put together at least a few fun new gameday recipes. And this Skinny Bacon Cheeseburger Dip is topping the charts. Now, I know what you might be thinking… Cheeseburger as a dip? Well, why the hell not?…

I tell you, summer is not going to go down without a fight this year. It's been well over 100 degrees here in Austin, Texas and so far we're still hovering in the upper 90's and often with a heat index of 106+ - yikes! It's hot, but nothing is quite as hot as this Quarter Pounder Burger Salad.

Let's face it, we all know what a 'quarter pounder' is. We don't even need to add the 'burger' part to that phrase and we'll all understand what's being spoken about. A quarter pound patty that's got lettuce, tomato, pickles, maybe some onion, and of course special sauce!

While it's unimaginably hot outside and football season is officially kicked off, I decided the best thing to do was to cool off with a nice hearty salad ahead of any big game tailgating (or homegating.)…

Spinach & Artichoke Mediterranean Burgers (Lettuce Wrapped)

Just about everyone enjoys a good burger. Especially during the summertime when grilling season is in full swing! I don't know about you, but I always like to play around with burger flavors. I guess that started some years back now when I was in high school and my parents started buying these 'fully loaded' burgers from a local grocery chain. They were always delicious but super expensive! I knew even then how easy they would be to make ourselves at home, and how much cheaper and better they would be too!

Now, I'll be honest in saying that, originally, I was just going to shoot for a spinach and artichoke burger. But I figured, why stop there? We're going way outside the box here! So, I ended up making these Spinach & Artichoke Mediterranean Burgers which really couldn't be any more fully loaded…
