As we get closer to our Kauai trip, we have re-embraced a carb free diet. Sunday breakfast was poached eggs, bacon, and cheese but, lunch was all about handling a craving that I have had for a burger. Burgers as most Americans know them require buns and buns, unfortunately, have carbs...
There is a way around this and we gave it a go for lunch today. The last thing I was to do is work hard today (killed myself yesterday and am not inclined to apply myself today). While the turkey burgers were on the grill (lightly seasoned of course), I grabbed some cheese, leaf lettuce and tomatoes from the fridge. Slice the tomatoes, salt lightly and place on your plate. Add whatever condiments you want to one face of the lettuce leaf (mayo in my case). Once off the grill, allow the patties to rest for three or so minutes. Add the cheese (cheddar in this instance) and wrap in the lettuce leaf.
On another subject, I found a steady supply of Cavender's seasoning at Wal-Mary of all places. y father used to use this on the London Broils he would grill but, I have come to love it on just about everything you might use salt on. It adds a depth of flavor that salt alone cannot bring. If you are watching your salt intake, there is a salt free version that isn't too bad...
