Aussie Burger with the lot

My lovely Aussie rellies sent us some fun foodies for Christmas....Thanks again guys!!! We had to try some of them out for dinner last night.

I hear Justin eats this chicken flavored salt on everything, we decided to try it on roasted potatoes. When we tried the salt just plain, it does taste like chicken, but it mostly tasted salty on the potatoes. They were still yummy though...some from Stan and Lorna's garden!

We also got a can of beet slices for Aussie burgers, from what I read on this website, A burger with the lot should include: a bun, mayo, beef patty, cheddar cheese, fried egg, bacon, tomato slice, lettuce, onion, and tomato sauce! A mouthful! I like the beet pickles on it very much, but an egg is just a little too much....the runny yolk was very nice to dip in though, maybe once in a while :) Fun to try something a little different, on todays menu a little bit healthier lettuce cups!

  2. Egg on a burger is a little rich for me. Lettuce cups sounds good. What do you put in them?
