Bison Burgers

Sammie and I don’t eat beef for a bunch of different reasons but we will devour bison any day of the week. Bison (or Buffalo) is lean, tastes great and the FDA has a no “hormones, no antibiotics and no steroids” standard that I wish they would hold “all” meat to but that is a subject for another blog. Here’s a weekend favorite, during the summer time and maybe early fall, before it gets too cold to grill. I use BBQ rub in the seasoning when we’re grilling them. Shredding the onion and portobello mushroom helps this very lean meat bind and hold together better.

Prep time: 30 minutes | Total time: 45 minutes | Servings: 8 | Sam scores it 9.5/10
(He explained the high score as follows, “Hey, I had a hand in making this too.”)

Portobello Mushroom and Spinach Omelette

This is a quick but filling breakfast option. The last time I made it I used Portobello  mushrooms since I had them on hand and wanted to eat them while they were still fresh. I’m sticking to the Crimini’s bigger, brown sibling in future, it was almost like having a little breakfast sausage in my omelette.
