Dinner Anyone

Tonight I had simple: turkey burger, slaw, and pico de gallo. I thawed green chiles last week, and I'm trying to use them. This took 30 minutes from start to finish.

Retro and Modern Slaw:
1/2 package shredded cabbage and carrots or do your own
1/2 lime
large handful cilantro chopped
large spoonful mayonaise

Pour the cabbage mixture into a bowl. Add the cilantro. Stir with mayonnaise to bind. Squeeze 1/2 lime over bowl and mix. Put in refrigerator until you finish everything else.


Pico de Gallo
Use proportions to suit the number being fed.

tomatoes finely chopped
onion minced
garlic minced--I forgot this tonight.
mild pepper chopped
cilantro minced--I'm lazy and chop this instead of mincing, but I'm a cilantro fan.
hot pepper finely minced to taste
squirt of lime juice
salt

Mix everything together and you're good to go. I usually make this mild, but that's your choice.

Turkey Burger Dressed with Chile and Pico de Gallo

Simple, cook the burger until done. Obviously you can substitute the burger meat of your choice. I throw the green chile into the pan when I flipped the burger. Tonight I added smoked mozzarella, not the best cheese for this but what I had.
