Stuff Me Baby

mmmm just look at that melty cheesy goodness!!

Originally I had found a recipe for feta and spinach turkey burgers that I was dying to try... apparently that wasn't the only thing dying. My bag of spinach didn't make it during the move!

But, when you have lemons... make lemonade! So rather than pouting or running out to the store I rummaged through my packed fridge to see what I had on hand. 97% organic beef, lite mozzarella, grape tomatoes and garlic herb feta were found... and that my friends is when I came up with this mouth watering recipe! You are definitely going to want to make this!

What you need:
Ground beef of your choice - I used lean ground beef but ground chicken or turkey works!
1/2 cup diced grape tomatoes
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup feta - I used garlic herb flavored!
pepper for seasoning!

Grab a handful of your ground meat (I know raw meat is gross but this is topped with deliciousness!). Flatten it out and place about a spoonful of each the feta, mozzarella and tomatoes. 

 Roll into a ball so that the cheese and tomatoes are covered! Repeat until all your burgers are prepared and season them with the pepper.

Don't mind the other burgers in that photo... I know that the grill comes out about once a week so I made sure to utilize it tonight! Grill your burgers until they are the temperature you like and enjoy!

Top with whatever you want! I went simple and just used some lettuce from my grandmothers garden. Grilled onions would be bangin (yes I just used that word) on this burger!

When you cut it in half you get all of its melty goodness!

Old and New {WIAW}

I love summer for many reasons. I get a nice tan, natural highlights pop up in my hair, the beach, jet skiing, popsicles, pedicures, fresh garden veggies and sun dresses.

BUT

I sure do love the fall. I love skinny jeans in boots, I love oversized sweaters with belts, I love layering my clothes, I love the first weekend the leaves are all changing colors, pumpkin flavored everything and of course how the city lights up in purple for Ravens football.

Don't get me started on picking apples, wine tastings, carving pumpkins, bon fires and hay rides. There is nothing better than the fall to me. It is just so warm and inviting and when I do get to walk down the isle one day you better believe it will be in the fall.

Is it just me that daydreams about fall clothes and boots? Just me? Okay. Back to what i was originally going to write about.





I'll share some new photos of what I have been eating lately...

Lots of Food Should Taste Good Chips and Salsa

I clearly do not deck myself out in makeup at work. And I have been on a no hair dryer kick lately, braids = waves my friends!

 Todays breakfast. Cherries, a few golden raspberries and granola on top of a cup of peach yogurt.

 Sunday's Brunch. Sick Cara = Can actually sleep past 8! 2 eggs, half a nanner and a TJ sandwich thin with apricot preserves and a sprinkle of chia seeds.
 

Frozen Yogurt! Peanut Butter, Cappuccino, Cake Batter and Cheesecake with yogurt dots, heath bar and a few sour worms. I can never just choose one flavor!

Sorry for all of the iPhone pics... we just moved (more on that later) and my camera is somewhere in a box! I'll rescue it tommorow!

Now onto the old. I always am racking my brain on what to make for dinner. It is the one meal that me and Chris eat together and that I actually get to take my time making. Mornings I am always throwing things together before work, hence my yogurt breakfasts.

Looking back through my recipes I haven't made curry chicken in awhile! The good thing about blogging is whenever I am in a stump about what to make I can look back to old recipes or find new ones from other blogs! This recipe is simple, healthy and a crowd winner...

Curry Chicken:

Serves 4

1 to 1.5 pounds chicken breast, diced

1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoon curry

1 tablespoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon tumeric

1.5 containers non-fat greek yogurt

1 tablespoon lime juice

Directions:

Add all ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Cook on medium high until chicken is fully cooked. Serve over rice.

 This recipe is great with shrimp as well! I love serving it one top of grilled onions!

Zucchini and Squash!

Indian feast! Whole wheat naan, homemade hummus, roasted cauliflower :-)

 So there you have it! Don't forget to enter my giveaway! Food Should Taste Good tortilla chips are going to send one of you 5 of your favorite flavor chips! Enter here!!

Food Should Taste Good GIVEAWAY

First, my melons are almost readddyyy! Fresh cantaloupe scream summer to me. Next year I would love to grow some watermelon too!

Who doesn't love a giveaway? Especially when it is something that is healthy AND delicious!

Food Should Taste Good recently contacted me and offered to send me FIVE (totally spoiled) bags of their chips AND I got to pick the flavors. Double Score. 

In case you aren’t familiar with their product... their all natural tortilla chips are made from real, simple ingredients. All of the chip varieties are free of cholesterol, preservatives and trans fat, and do not use genetically modified ingredients (GMOs). They are also certified Kosher and Gluten Free, lower in sodium, and are a good source of dietary fiber. 

They have 11 flavors: Multigrain, Sweet Potato, Olive, Jalapeño, The Works!, Chocolate, Lime, Blue Corn, Cheddar, Toasted Sesame, and White Cheddar. 

I chose sweet potato, olive, lime, blue corn and multigrain. I bet all of you are wondering about the chocolate flavor... I bet that would be great dipping into a bowl of chili. Rachel Ray is always adding cocoa powder to her chili recipes!

I have already gotten my hands into the sweet potato and it is amazing! After opening the bag you get the smell of sweet potato right away! Plus, the sodium is only 3% of your daily value and the fiber is 11%. Awesome. 

Looks like I will be making some summer salsa with these guys!

Here is the best part about it... the amazing people at Food Should Taste Good are sponsoring a giveaway so one of you can pick 5 of your favorite flavors to be sent to your house!
