I bought a new recipe book the other day. It's called 1001 Low-carb Recipes by Dana Carpender. It has a fairly good variety so dinner tonight came from that book. The menu included Blue Bacon Burgers (p. 365), Coleslaw for Company (p. 154) and Tavern Soup (p. 184).
The soup tasted good, but it was more of a drinkable soup than an eating soup. I can see it being good in a mug after playing out in the snow or something but I don't know that I will make it again.
The coleslaw was just that. It tasted like coleslaw. I am not the biggest fan, but I am all about trying new things and I have never made it before. If you like coleslaw, you will probably like it.
The burgers were amazingly good. I really really enjoyed them and didn't even miss a bun.
Blue Bacon Burgers
1 1/3 lb ground chuck
4 Tbsp blue cheese crumbles
4 Tbsp blue cheese dressing
4 Tbsp minced onion
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (I only made 3, and thought it was plenty)
Mix it all together, form into patties and cook 'em up. I cooked them on an electric skillet. They did splatter everywhere, but that is pretty standard for any hamburger product. I sliced up a small onion, cooked it over medium low in olive oil in a cast iron skillet on the stove and served them over the burgers. They were so so good.
