HEART HEALTHY? NOPE! HEART WARMING? YEP!

Here I am!

I said I was going to try to get back

in the groove of blogging again.

I know sometimes bloggers

say they are 

TAKING A BREAK

and then they disappear forever.

I sometimes wonder if their mate

got tired of them blogging and

"offed them"-if you know what I mean!

Anyway

When you wake up and it is 

7 DEGREES outside it is 

WINTER!

Winter calls for food that

"warm-your-bones"!

This is what Midwesterners

like to refer to as

HEARTLAND food-

Mostly because it will put you at

coronary risk...

don't say I didn't warn you.

Now- If you are looking 

GLUTEN FREE 

or 

LOW FAT 

or 

HEART HEALTHY

please run away from here as fast as your

bony little butt will take you.

This is none of those!

I had SOME hamburger but not enough 

to feed two kids and two adults-

and-I did need to use it up.

Isn't raw hamburger kind of gross to look at?

So...I thought- if you can make 

CHICKEN FRIED STEAK

why can't you make 

CHICKEN FRIED HAMBURGER?

Guess what?

YOU CAN!

I had about 2/3 pound of hamburger.

I added 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese,

and 1/3 cup of the Shake & Bake crumbs.

Mixed it all together with my hands 

(yes my hands)

then formed patties that were less than 1/2" thick.

Is 3/8" of an inch too calculated?

Then I turned them once in the flour,

then put them in the beaten egg,

then put them into the 

Shake & Bake mixture.

Lined up and waiting-

Then I cooked them in medium hot oil 

for about 2 minutes per side.

They were delicious.

I served them with carrots and 

sauteed zucchini along with

a microwaved apple topped with

cinnamon and Splenda brown sugar.

 

And while EVERYONE ELSE likes their

chicken fried hamburgers

with a bit of gravy,

I like mine with KETCHUP.

It tastes like a cutlet that way (to me).

Listen- Here is my advice for 2022!

ALWAYS eat before you go

grocery shopping.

Otherwise you will be posting 

a sign like this one.

Have a Happy Wednesday!!

I am going to start to do a little

FRIDAY THING.

I will post the first one this Friday

and y'all can tell me if I should

continue along my schtick.

AND

I will be around soon with another

PICK YOUR FAVORITE TABLE

now that!

I am back in the loop

or loopy-you decide!
