Juicy Lamb Sliders with Simple Greek Salad

I eyeballed a lot, but this should serve two people.

For Sliders:

1/2 pound ground lamb (only $6.99/lb at Whole Foods!)
3 tablespoons of oregano
3 minced cloves of garlic
3 stalks of green onions, diced
Feta Cheese
Freshly cracked pepper
Tzatziki Sauce (homemade or store bought)
Pepperidge Farms Slider Buns

Combine everything (except the buns and sauce!) in a big bowl and mix it up very well. Mold into flattened patties that would fit the size of your bun. Heat a grill pan or skillet to medium high heat, drizzle EVOO on the pan and place the patties on the pan for about 2 minutes on each side. Toast the buns while you are cooking the meat. When everything is ready, spread some tzatziki sauce on the bun and add the meat.

For added crunch I also place a slice of cucumber from the salad on top of the sauce. I also just eat these open-faced so there isn’t too much bread and you can really taste the lamb.

This could also be made into full sized Lamburgers if you only have regular sized buns, but sliders are cuter and easier to eat! I could also see adapting this into greek meatball if you added some breadcrumbs and egg!

For Salad:

Small container of cherry tomatoes, cut in half
One large cucumber
Quarter of a white onion, diced
One or two lemons (for juice)
EVOO
White Wine vinegar
Oregano
Salt
Pepper
Pitted and halved Kalamata Olives (I forgot to add these but I know they would make it great)
Fresh mint (optional)

Combine and enjoy!

A New Spin

What was once a joke (making a blog) will now become documentation for successes in the kitchen, at restaurants, and anything else I deem interesting/delicious.

To quote Eliza, “Good food, good friends, and a good time had by all… wish you coulda been here!”

Love this so much.

Oh, I love soup. If the only thing I could do was lay in bed and eat soup, I’d be happy. I wouldn’t even have to taste it. I could just take it through a tube. That would actually be better ‘cause I wouldn’t even burn my mouth…. Never let me die.

amazing.

Whoops

…I guess I forgot to blog about Italy.

You know, I think you try a little harder when you’re scared.

Cristina, on the other hand, expected something very different out of love. She had reluctantly accepted suffering as an inevitable component of deep passion, and was resigned to putting her feelings at risk. If you asked her what it was she was gambling her emotions on to win, she would not have been able to say. She knew what she didn’t want, however, and that was exactly what Vicky valued above all else.
