There was ground beef in the freezer, so we're thawing it out. Real complicated stuff. I might sautee some onions and peppers since they're lying around. Pepperidge Farm makes these things called deli flats that have only 100 calories and something like 5 grams of fiber. If you've sworn off white bread like me, check them out. They make for an effective alternative delivery system (aka bun).
Found this cool idea online where you line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, throw on the ground beef, cover it with plastic wrap, and then roll it out with a rolling pin so it's nice and thin. Remove plastic wrap. Then pull up the parchment paper to fold beef in half, pressing down. Now you can cut perfectly square burgers that are not too thick. Groovalicious.
MIKE! You told me that trick for hamburgers and last week I bought some ground round in bulk and it was an absolute SNAP to make the hamburgers for the freezer! I could kiss you for that one. Second, I tried those Pepperidge Farm bread thingys. They are fantastic!!!!!! Works great for burgers. I owe you big time.
