Grilled Hamburgers, Napoleon Style Napoleon Bonaparte ate like the typically busy American does – quickly. Twenty-first-century style demands that you hurry up and don’t keep anyone waiting. Why else is there an abundance of fast-food restaurants where you can order a cheeseburger combo, pay at the window, and take off within five minutes (eating while you drive)? Sound familiar to you? Slow down, stop taking too much on your plate (no pun intended), and stock up on nutritious groceries instead of fatty cheeseburgers for a change (Did you know one regular/small cheeseburger averages 18 fat grams, 374 calories, 873 sodium, and 41 carbohydrates?).Read More →

Pancake Foldover Breakfast Add Protein to Pancakes Add protein from simply adding an egg and/or sausage to pancakes prepared from a box mix. The protein from a pancakes box mix serving amounts to about 4 grams. Add an egg with another 6 grams. Add another 3 grams by including half a sausage patty. The protein in the pancake foldover will then equal approximately 13 grams. One cup of blueberries for the whole recipe only amounts to 1.1 grams. Pancakes and syrup always go together. On the other hand, pancakes satisfy the palate just as great without the syrup. But if the extra dip-in-the-syrup sweetness seemsRead More →

Furthermore, a hot dog meal is easy and perfect to prepare as a meal for kids. I’m a grandma (though I’m usually called Grummy by my grands), and I love simple easy-to-fix meals for my hubby and me – and of course, the grandkids when I’m keeping them.Read More →
