Last night I BBQd chicken and a tinfoil packet of sliced sweet potatoes, onions, peppers and mushrooms with spices.
I had it in my mind today that I was going to try to find a recipe for oatmeal "burgers"...I'm not sure why I wanted to do this... I couldn't find any recipe that struck my fancy, so I picked up some ground turkey that was on sale and decided to find a turkey/oatmeal burger recipe. I finally just decided to wing it and make up my own recipe. I call it my Turkey Oatmeal Salsa Burger. Basically it was just a pound of lean ground turkey, 1/3 cup oatmeal (I popped it in the magic bullet til it looked like bread crumbs), some onion, peppers and mushrooms, 1 tablespoon of chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (also pureed in the Bullet), 4 tablespoons of PC chipotle salsa. Mix together, form into 4 burgers and chill for a while (apparently chilling them keeps them together better when you cook them). I threw 'em on the BBQ for a bit and voila! Unfortunately I didn't have any buns, so I decided to make a salad and toss the burger on top and topped it all with some more chipotle salsa.
I think sometime this week I am going to do a post on bananas. Yes, bananas. I heard someone tell me today that their doctor told them that bananas were FATTENING! huh??? Let me do some research and get back to you on this one. I know for me personally, I did NOT get fat eating bananas...unless they were dipped in chocolate and rolled in chopped peanuts maybe...nope, still can't see bananas making you fat. Unless you're eating a bunch of them each day...Stay tuned folks.

LOL, like your comment about bananas. Yeah, ummm, that's how I got fat...eating bananas. Well they say they are high on the GI Index, but I don't think they're going to kill us. Besides, how many bananas do you eat a day anyway? Glad you had a great bbq.
haha, I eat maybe 1!
