Recipe #3/Ry's Journey

5


These burgers really turned out GREAT! I was a little worried after my Orange Chicken wasn’t as I expected, but THESE, they were delish! I was worried they would turn out dry or fall apart, neither happened. I served them with oven fries, which are 3 points for a serving size. I just had another burger for lunch and I think it was better today than last night! One thing I did do was after I made the patties, I stuck them in the fridge for 30 minutes so that they could firm up and so the flavors could soak in. I will DEFINITELY be making these bad boys again! I also had 1 point hamburger buns, which are VERY easy to find.

Tonight were headed out to dinner so I won’t be getting my Weight Watcher cookbook out, but will defiantly get back to cooking this weekend. Enjoy your WED! HALF WAY TO FRIDAY!
