This is not a FOOD BLOG

This is not a food blog.  This is a blog about our first year of marriage.  But in this marriage, we love food.  We watch a lot of Food Network TV, so we often pretend that we are on a cooking show, Chopped or something, and we have to come up with a recipe using the random ingredients we have on hand.  So, I made this... and it was epic so I must share.  I didn't measure anything (because I was using leftovers) , so, if you decide to make this masterpiece yourself,  use your own judgement regarding the rationing of ingredients.  We found that this dish pairs famously with Chardonnay.  Un-Oaked Chard is my preference, and we try to drink organic or local wine, so I served this with Messina Hof (Texas grown and crafted) Un-Oaked Chardonnay.  Delicious. 


1.  Mix together!

Ground Turkey
1 egg
Crushed Walnuts
BBQ sauce
Grated Parmesan Cheese
3 cloves of minced garlic
salt and pepper

2. Sauce!

Melt some butter
Add crushed garlic
Cook for a minute or so
Add Heavy Cream
Add some blue cheese
Cook over low heat, melting the cheese, stirring and cooking to desired consistency.  Ours was kind of thick and creamy.

3.  Grill the burger, toast the bun, slather BBQ sauce and gorgonzola cheese sauce onto bun, add burger, a slice of avocado, and serve.

P.S.  We grew this tomato, and it was good.
