Unexpectedly-Delicious Burger Salad
The E.P. and I eat frozen burgers regularly. They're cheap and easy, and generally come out pretty well in the toaster oven. Once-a-week burgers get old after a while, though, and we're constantly trying out new ways to dress them up (without buns and all that nonsense. ;)
Last week, we tried yet another experiment that could have gone horribly wrong... but came out amazingly good! I'll call it...
'Dublin' Cheese-Burger Honey-Mustard Salad
Layer in a bowl:
- A mess o' greens (Spinach or mixed is always best! Romaine will do in a pinch)
- A handful together of onions, carrots, bell pepper and other salad additives chopped or diced to your liking
- A small roma tomato or several heirloom cherries, chopped
- A fully-cooked, ready-to-eat burger
- 1/4 cup of grated Dubliner cheese. Dubliner really made the dish!
Dressing:
- a TB or 2 of olive oil
- The same amout of white vinegar
- Several good shakes of powdered mustard
- One gentle shake of ground cloves
- Honey to taste
Shake it up and drizzle on top! Voila! A surprisingly satisfying meal in a bowl.
