Hey guys and gals' here is a easy, healthy and tasty dinner, for you to try. Start with a small garden salad then try my Gouda burgers and corn with peppers, and finish it off with a bowl of sliced fresh fruit and vanilla yogurt later in the evening.
The burger, start with a 1/4 pound of local organic ground beef per person. We have some great Angus and longhorn farms near by. I like to put a light coating of McCormak's steakhouse seasoning on the meat after I make the patties about the size of your palm and leave them in the fridge while I get everything else ready. I then put one can of corn in a small pot with a sliced red and/or orange sweet pepper, and put it over medium heat.Then I take two frying pans and coat them lightly with olive oil. One is an iron skillet the other modern lined. I then chop up two fresh tomato's and half a fresh onion( I am cooking for three in this example). I pre heat both skillets on high. Once they are heated I put the meat in the Iron skillet and the tomato's and onion in the other. I let everything cook for a two minutes flipping it every 30 seconds. Then I turn it down to medium low which is 3 on my stove. Then I set the table and make the other preparations filling drinks water and sometimes a glass of juice or wine ex. When I am finished that I turn the corn down to low and put the tomato's and onions in with the meat and put a slice of Gouda on top of the burgers and cover everything with the pan I was using for the veggies, and allow it to cook for three minutes or so. The time will depend on how you like your burgers rare-medium ex. this is for medium.While this is happening I chop up some fresh fruit strawberries, banana's whatever you like and put them in some small bowls mixed with one vanilla yogurt each( the Eat Right or Activia are my favorites) and put them in the fridge for later in the evening.Then I serve it! Breed or rolls are optional. I like one peace of whole grain oat breed on the side with mine.All of the prep can be done 45 minutes or so.While I clean up after Petra gives Emma Grace a bath and then we all sit down and watch a family show and enjoy our fruit and yogert desert!!!
I hope this has helped you in some small way.
Sincerely,
John
