Hamburgers Using Kale as a Binder Instead of Bread Crumbs
We’ve been experimenting to find an alternative to adding bread crumbs as a binder to homemade hamburgers and found a fabulous ingredient…. KALE! Sounds a bit weird, I know, but this super green combined with a bit of fresh cilantro adds a wonderful, smoky flavor and you end up with a tasty, moist burger that’s low carb and gluten free! These Kale Beef Burgers have become a quick family favorite.
I was craving something crispy and crunchy tonight and am trying to stay away from carbs so I decided to make some crispy kale chips.
I usually buy just green organic kale as that is what I’ve normally seen used in most recipes I find on the internet. This time, I already had a bag of organic rainbow kale I’d purchased earlier in the week. This bag, which I found at Walmart of all places, has three types of organic kale: green, red and dinosaur (flat kale). I thought I would try this and see how it works. My kale chips were deliciously nutty flavored and totally hit the spot! And, my kids practically devoured them before I could get some for myself so I had to make a second batch!
Frittatas are easy to put together and make a great addition to breakfast or brunch. They’re also a great way to use up items you have on hand! All you need are some eggs and your favorite veggies and meats.
