Dinner's Ready: Burgers on the Grill

Well, I probably shouldn't do this, but I've started another Blog. Like I don't already spend too much time at the MacBook. As some of you might have guessed, I like to cook and I love to eat. So I thought I'd share my recipes, humble as they may be and a look at "What's for Dinner at Our House." The plan is to be discovered by the Food Network for my cooking show, which hubby has titled: "Cranky Franky's in the Kitchen".
Am I ready for critics? Probably not. I know my instructions are not always clear or precise. Let me know if something doesn't make sense. Anyhow, if you're interested, check out "Dinner's Ready"

Burgers on the Grill

This is the quintessential American meal - burgers and fries with accoutrements.

Grilled Lean Beef Burgers with Cheese
(Leon's Burger has Cheese Chunks)
The Third Smaller Burger is For Benni, of Course

Shallow Fried Potatoes

Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion

Red Cabbage Slaw*

Cukes With a Pre-mix Salad Dressing

The Table is Set

And Plated Up

*Red cabbage slaw: 1/2 head of red cabbage shredded; soak in a bowl just big enough to contain the cabbage with 1/2 cup of vinegar and enough water to cover and a little salt and 2 teaspoons of sugar. After 20 - 30 minutes, drain off the vinegar-water. Add 1 cup chopped carrots, a half cup of raisins and/or dried cranberries, a half of chopped onion, 2 teaspoons of horseradish, 1/4 to 1/3 cup of mayonnaise and refrigerate overnight if you plan ahead. Otherwise serve today.
