This recipe is AMAZING!!! I did not use the tomatoes or basil; used a whole wheat sandwich thin as well. I scaled the recipe for a 4oz burger (for one person)--used 1/8 tsp onion powder for the onion, 1/8 tsp garlic powder for the garlic powder. I crushed the fennel seeds in a small bag with a rolling pin before adding it to the meat. Put a small slice of cheese on it & served with light mayo. Was so flavorful & delicious; thank you!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Even though I am still young (25) Life experince has aged me alot.
I learned to cook at both of my grandmother's knees (One southern American, one southern Irish) when I was about five. By ten I started collecting cookbooks and experinmenting on my own.
As a latch key kid I cooked for my four younger brothers and sisters.
My mom ran a small deli before she died when I was 17 so alot of my recies debuted there.
Now I run my own catering Buisness.
I am married to a wnderful man for five years now. I am a six year old daughter, sons who are four and three.
We are also raising my 14 year old sister and nine Year old stepsister and have a 16 year old foster daughter, all of which love cooking with me.
I am writing a cookbook with the hopes that when I pass I can leave my recipes for them
My cookbook collection has now reached over 1200.
Thank you for trying and reviewing my recipes..
