Veggie Burger

DSC01542

For dinner last night, after school – tutoring and the board meeting, I came home and didn’t know what I wanted for dinner.  Brady had gotten started on burgers and salad so I went with it.

Classic and Amazing

After returning home from our 6 hour drive from Nashville, we unpacked and relaxed. We were both sore from being in the car for so long. I decided to go for a 3 mile jog to get some of the lactic acid out of my legs and hopefully make going down the stairs easier tomorrow.

While I was gone, Brady set to work on dinner. This is what he came up with. It HIT the SPOT!
