If you know even the slightest thing about me, you know I am a darn sucker for a gyro sandwich. Whether it’s in line at 1am after too much wine in my much younger, more hip days or takeout from our favorite hole in the wall local gas station, I am a proud, obsessed supporter of that perfectly flavored, juices running down your arm, all wrapped up in a pita bundle of goodness. And fortunately, my hubs and kiddos are equally on board. Continue reading

A couple of months ago I had the honor of attending the launch of the James Beard Foundations Blended Burger Project here in Minneapolis. The blended burger initiative aims to influence chefs to incorporate mushrooms into burger recipes, both for sustainability and health benefits. Makes perfect sense to me. And the coolest part is that this movement is being welcomed and respected to no end. From elite restaurants to classic burger joints, these blends are showing up on menus all around the world. And get this, schools throughout the country have incorporated blended burgers into their menus. Can you imagine? It’s time for change, friends, and I suppose we could start one household at a time.

Hello, Friday…so nice to see you!
MN friends. The Juicy Lucy. Discuss…
Non-MN friends. The Juicy Lucy. Thoughts? Have you been blessed enough to experience such amazingness? If you aren’t familiar I’ll give you the lowdown.

You’ve got legendary places like this that have absolutely hit the nail on the head with showing folks how a classic Juicy Lucy is done. And then there’s spots like this that take the concept of the Juicy Lucy and run with it. The stuffed cheese is accompanied by things like bacon, caramelized onions, pepperoni, sauces of all sorts, peppers…the list could go on. Continue reading
