Today's Recipe: Burger
❤️ It's the weekend and therefore, you might be out with friends or running errands, you might want to enjoy a cocktail in the sun and have a burger.
That's okay... enjoy
just.... skip the bun and french fries. You can toss that burger on a salad or have it wrapped in lettuce, opt for coleslaw or a veggie on the side.
❤️If you are having brunch, you could get a burger topped with a fried egg..... I mean yum... it will be so filling, you won't miss the fries or bun.
Today's tips:
