The weekend is almost here. This is a great date night recipe, especially if you and a loved one are working on scaling back on carbs together. This pairs great with our favorite Romaine Salad. If you plan on skipping the wine and have a little extra carbohydrate allowance, pair it with a baked & buttered sweet potato.
The Vinter’s Kitchen seasoning that specifically pairs with your wine of choice is from House of Mo, a terrific local shop in the heart of our Grapevine community. I opted for the Carbernet Wine Rub because I always pair my meat with red regardless!
Bun-less Burger, Brussels Sprouts, and Side of Antioxidants
Ingredients
- 2-4 Good quality meat patties
- 1 Packet Trader Joe's Shaved Brussels Sprouts
- Maniatis Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
- Trader Joe's Avocado Cooking Spray
- Happy Cow Aged Chedder Spread Optional
- Large Lettuce Leave For Wraps Optional
Instructions
-
Coat cooking pan with avocado cooking spray
-
Cook patties on medium to high heat for about 3-5 minutes on each side. Depends on how your stove heat, style of pan, and how many patties you may have on at one time.
-
Just make sure the internal temperature for chicken comes to 165 F and for beef at least 145 F.
-
While the patties are going, you can have another pan going that has also been lightly coated with avocado cooking spray. Make sure it is on medium-high heat.
-
Sauté the brussels sprouts and add in a little extra virgin olive oil and the Vinter's Kitchen Carbernet Wine.
-
Once the meat and shaved Brussels Sprouts are done to your liking, remove them each from the pans and plate.
-
I chose to spread on the Laughing Cow-Aged Cheddar and used a little more of the Vinter's Kitchen seasoning on both the Brussels Sprouts and burger.
