this is a blog about the food in my life. what I eat, what I wanna eat, what I make, what I bake, what I wanna make and bake, ideas and recipes. it's also my thoughts on food or stories behind the meals. The lyric references are from my lifelong love of classic rock and funk and from working a hunnerd years in music retail.

Heigh Ho! Heigh Ho!
A giant summer storm, the best kind, rolled in as I prepared Bacon Wrapped baked chicken burgers. Sauteed cabbage with Balsamic Vinegar, bacon and sweet onions for a side.
I haven't quite cracked the code for making lettuce burgers the most convenient to eat. In the end, it's easier using the lettuce as you would flour tortillas, tearing off a piece and scooping your bite. It depends on the lettuce but Romaine is sturdy and resilient. I've shaped the burgers into logs, which could have worked better here. There is something to the presentation of a giant burger though, so it's been a challenge to honor the institution yet make it easier to devour with lettuce as opposed to buns. I have no problem continuing this important burger work.
