This is another easy and yummy salad to toss together at the end of a busy day (pg.102). I will admit, I wasn’t sure about the homemade blue cheese dressing. . .I have a slight addiction to the blue cheese dressing that Metropolitan Market makes and this dressing was not similar at all. But, when combined with the flavors of the salad and drizzled over the mini burgers it was actually really tasty. I would make this salad again.

First, your pound of beef is combined with chopped scallions, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, panko breadcrumbs, and salt & pepper, and then formed into eight mini patties.

While husband is grilling up the burgers go ahead and prep the rest of your ingredients: tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, blue cheese crumbles. Oh, and if you have a ripe avocado on hand throw it into the salad, too. . .tasty! The dressing is a combo of: blue cheese, heavy cream, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt & pepper.

Enjoy!
