Good day my favorite foodie friends! It’s Friday! Do I hear a collective sigh?
Yes, it’s time for the weekend and hopefully you have a little bit of R&R planned! Well, the folks at @foodfightfriday always like to start the weekend with lots of food, and I mean lots! I don’t know about you but great venue seems to grow larger each week, food from all over the globe. It’s great, it you haven’t checked it out yet, please do!
After the yearly visit to the local Bird Doctor…
this week, we’ve decided it’s time to shed a few pounds. The feathers are feeling a wee bit tight these days, so we decided to hit the pavement early, ramping up the miles on the bikes! It’s already 90 degrees in the shade and as you can see, Mr. Bird is not wasting any time!
About an hour later…
we coasted back into the garage, ready for a nice, cold chocolate smoothie! No arm twisting on this one! A little protein powder, frozen bananas, berries, avocado, cacao and almonds….yum!
As many of you know, the famous Steemit Sandwich Contest is over but that doesn’t mean we can’t make sandwiches! So, we’re bringing those great sandwiches to you!
It’s Friday night, a great night for grillin’ and Bison is the chosen Burger!
Fresh buns will do…
These are awesome, gluten free and for those of you enjoying the Keto diet, they’ll work for you as well!
All you need
- Almond Flour (1 1/2 cup)
- Psyllium Husk (1 tbsp.)
- Baking Powder (1 tsp)
- Sea Salt (1/2 tsp)
- Garlic Powder (1/2 tsp)
- Mozzarella Cheese (1 1/2 cup)
- Cream Cheese (4 tbsp.)
- Egg (qty 1)
- Parmesan Cheese (1 tbsp.)
Chesses were melting…
in the microwave while I mixed up the dry ingredients. Combine the dry and wet along with the egg, roll it into a ball and into the fridge for 10 minutes. Bison Burger, chopped sweet onion and sweet peppers a dash of sriracha and Chicago Seasoning! Patty up and we’re good to go, grillin!
While the burgers are on the grill…
I divided the dough into four even pieces, rolled them into sweet little balls and placed them on a parchment lined baking sheet. Top with parmesan cheese and baked them for 15 minutes at 400 degrees
Dinner time! Pesto garlic cheese topped burgers and Dirty Dill Wickle Pickles!
Oh my, after that we needed another bike ride! But honestly, no heavy bloated feeling with those nice gluten free rolls! I would love to hear what you’re grillin’ this weekend! Join us on Fridays for @foodfightfriday, you’ll love it! Take a moment to relax, maybe read a good book, I hear it’s going to be hot, hot, hot this weekend!
So glad you stopped by today…
And as always, blessings to you all!
Biking inthat heat will burn upp the calories and the smoothie and bruget must have gone down so well
have a great Weekend :)

Yes! We have to do that biking to justify the burger! That's why we exercise right? Thanks @tattoodjay :)

Oh my word, love your smoothie AND that gorgeous Keto friendly burger, but we don't get Bison around here. You're right, we can still make sandwiches even though SSC is no longer around. I still have to find my way to #fff, but Fridays usually are our busy days with business guests departing and weekend leisure guests arriving!
Love your food Mrs Bird!
PS your bike route looks stunning!

Wow these burger making photos brought up fond old memories when I used to so this kind of minced meat too, but just with sweet white onions.
Not much grilling just mixed vegetables of long beans, onion, pork jerky, egg mixed with a bit of rice flour. Gluten Free dinner for me too! Haha.
(but forgot to take pictures)

Hey, @birdsinparadise.
It must be a thing—my feathers have been tight for ages, though. :) I think I have been losing weight with the new job, though, simply because I'm not sitting for hours on STEEM, but because there's lots of bending and some lifting involved.
I think I've had ground Bison before, but I'm not remembering how it tasted. I know it's a leaner meat, generally. At any rate, your food looks great from the bun to the meat. And the chocolate smoothie looked delicious, too.

Yes, those tight feathers can be a bother, lol Glad to hear you're losing a few lbs with the job :) We're working on it! Bison is so tasty, quite mild and nice with onions and peppers! You're too kind, I appreciate your kind words @glenalbrethsen!

It’s getting hot here this A.M. and I could drink that smoothie. 😊Biscuits look great.

After that bike ride we really welcomed the smoothie! It's the first thing we think about when we walk in the door, lol! Glad you enjoyed it! Mr. Bird really enjoyed those burger buns...they didn't last long! :)

Ha! Another post bookmarked. Those burgers look crazy delicious!
One question though, how long and at what temp do you grill the patties?
No Bison here, but I think lean minced lamb meat will do.
Blessings!

I'm glad you enjoyed them @papilloncharity :) We cooked them at about 350 degrees for 19 minutes. I don't want them to be undercooked! We love lamb as well, I'm sure they would be perfect! You'll have to let me know. Blessings!
