Instructions
Cheeseburgers
- Mix beef, egg and pepper in a bowl. Divide into 4 equal portions. Roll into balls and flatten into patties. Grill 3-4 min on each side or to desired doneness. Add cheese for last 2 minutes of cooking on second side. Place burgers on buns and top as desired.
Rutabaga Fries
- Peel rutabagas, and slice into thick cut julienne. Toss “fries” with olive oil. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet (hint: line with foil for easier clean up). Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 425 for 20 minutes or until cooked through. Turn broiler on, and broil another 2 minutes or until beginning to brown.
