Cheeseburger Bowls

New Recipe!

Trying to get back on track with eating. I’ve been like a 12 year old in the gas station market since school has been out!

I’m attempting to be more carb conscious again. So I thought I’d work up a new summer recipe. What says summer more than burgers?!? You can certainly go the more traditional route and just 86 the bun or wrap it in lettuce. I wanted something even easier and more time friendly. I notice in summer it becomes a buffet at dinner... eating between sports, activities etc. So being able to make a plate as you need is ideal.




Ingredients:

Ground beef (I used a pound...easy to adjust for more or less)
Season beef with: garlic salt, pepper, onion powder and a couple of splashes of Worcestershire sauce

Chopped Iceberg Lettuce
Chopped Pickles
Chopped Tomatoes
Shredded Cheese
(Chopped Onions would also be great... but my crew isn’t a big fan)
Sesame Seeds

*Really any toppings you love on top of a burger would be absolutely great! That is why the basic of this recipe is so good...its very versatile*

Burger Sauce

(make in a mason jar for easy storage)
1/4 cup mayo
1/3-1/2 cup ketchup
a couple of shakes of Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste
1-2 tsp (a good squeeze) of dijon mustard
1/4 tsp of paprika
1 clove crushed garlic


While browning the hamburger, leave meat in bigger chunks so that it is easier to eat with a fork.  Once the hamburger is done, time to start assembling the bowls.

Chopped lettuce on the bottom, then beef and cheese.  Now time to add your topping.  Finally, drizzle the burger sauce over the top with a fork and sprinkle sesame seeds.

My kids went back for second helpings.  I am going to keep that burger sauce ready in the fridge all summer.  Would be great on regular burgers as well, but would also be terrific as any kind of dip for chicken, potatoes or hotdogs.

Monday Must Have - - - Closet Clothing Dividers for Kids

Mom's Take back your morning!!!! If you are like me and have multiple school age children, mornings can be stressful and time consuming.  The fight about clothes and hurrying to get dressed in the morning can be endless and infuriating.  I envy those of you whose children wear uniforms to school.  But regardless of if they wear everyday clothes or uniforms this method is priceless. This also allows momma to see if everything they need for the week is clean and ready.  I also hang practice clothes or jersey's with the day of the week of the game etc. I started this when my oldest was in preschool.  It allows us organization and frees our mornings up.  When I started doing this, I used a hanging sweater organizer.  This was a good fit for the closet at the time and it worked for our space.  Now, my oldest two children share a room and closet, so this method works better for us. I ordered colorful set of clothing organizers from Amazon . ...

Elementary School - - Must Haves

Well, it’s that time again. It’s about to be back to school. This year looks different, but regardless of what your school is doing this fall there are things you are going to need this fall. If your house is like mine, school supplies and craft supplies are running low.  Between finishing school at home and quarantine... we are making due. Here in GA, we are starting back to school as normally as can be anticipated. Masks included, if possible. My elementary age kiddo is pretty good on clothes, but definitely needs somethings to start the year. These are a few things that I have bought or will be buying in addition to the required school supplies. First, as a third grader... she needed a bigger backpack. Lands End is my very favorite place to order back packs and lunch bags! They are wonderfully made and hold up so well. My kids love the prints. The website allows you to filter the size of the backpack based on height. For me, this makes shopping for a backpack SO much easi...

Tween Room Inspiration

Our oldest just turned 10, I just can’t believe it. But ten is big and she is beginning to grow out of toys and little girl stuff. She currently shares a room with her 7 year old little sister. They sleep in sweet little twin beds and we hear them whispers and playing after bed time. It has been good for them to share a room. I think it’s a wonderful learning experience for children to share a room. I have much older half siblings, so I basically grew up as an only child. Learning to live in a shared space is such an important lesson. Respecting people areas, cleaning up after yourself... these are all great lessons. Things that will serve her well in college. This particular child is fiercely independent and thrives and recharges on solo time. As the baby of the family approaches needing to be out of the crib we know a change is on the horizon. Our house has enough bedrooms  for everyone to have their own room, but some are upstairs  near our Master bedroom and some downs...
