Burger toppings

Last night we grilled GFS sirloin burgers, yum!

I made 2 toppings:

Grilled cubanella peppers.
Cut peppers in half and lay halves flat, brush both sides with olive oil and then grill.

Saute'd on the grill baby portabello mushrooms
1 package of sliced baby portabello mushrooms
Spray piece of foil with Pam
Place mushrooms in foil
Drizzle with olive oil
Drizzle with worcestshire sauce
Enough oil and sauce to pool at the bottom and create a sauce
Close up and shake to distribute sauce
Place on grill before burgers and take off when burgers are done


Everything turned out delish and needless to say I ate ALL the mushrooms.

I got this recipe from Market Day catalog.

2 boneless/skinless chicken breasts or chik n steaks (Market Day brand)
2-4 roasted red peppers
2 oz goat cheese (place in freezer for a few minutes to slice easier)
fresh basil

butterfly the chicken breasts
place peppers, slices of goat cheese and fresh basil leaves on one side of the butterflied chicken breast.
Fold chicken closed.
Use toothpicks to keep chicken closed.

Grill about 4-5 minutes until chicken is done.

Delicious, cheese melts and yummy flavors of basil and peppers.
