Dinner last night was pretty darn fantastic…I have no idea if it was because we were both starving after the bike ride but everything tasted wonderful. First, a beer:
I only had one. We made turkey burgers and instead of fries, we had asparagus as the side. They were perfect! A little pepper and shredded Parmesan cheese and it’s the perfect addition to pretty much any meal.
Asparagus
On the turkey burgers we melted slices of Swiss cheese and topped it with avocado. It was slimy and hard to eat but it was a delicious addition to the burgers. I sliced some tomato and added that too. (Very messy!)
Dinner hit the spot! But wait, there’s still dessert! I got us little miniature ice creams for dessert. Michael had Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and I got Moose Tracks (YUM).

For Sunday’s lunch I made a “salad” with the Red Inca Quinoa leftovers, steamed broccoli and steamed carrots, chickpeas and Goddess Dressing. It was very filling and what I love most about Quinoa is that it goes with everything. Salads are my favorite quick meal.

For a sweet treat, I also ate an entire package of raspberries. 🙂 I couldn’t resist. I love raspberries and once I started eating them I couldn’t stop!
Raspberries for Dessert
QUESTION: What is your favorite summertime fruit?
Beth
I could eat a whole pack or two of raspberries no problem! I love them, too. And I looove avocado + Provolone on top of a burger – probably my favorite combo of all time!

Glad I’m not the only one! Blackberries are a favorite too.

My favorite summer time fruit are mangoes. Jeep hates them which is what prompted me to try one and now I’m a huge fan! I eat ’em over the sink with the water ready. So juicy, messy and yummy. 🙂

I don’t hate mangoes but I definitely don’t crave them like the other berries and fruits.

Those individual ice cream cups are an ingenious creation! I love the Skinny Cow, Weight Watchers and Edy’s 6oz cups. Your dinner looks great too, so fresh and healthy. My favorites summertime fruit is blackberries – they are so much sweeter in season!

Blackberries are always a good summer treat!

peaches are my favorite. I love the mini icecream cups. I have found the skinny cow ones and am in love. The cookies and cream taste just like real icecream and the size is perfect. I am looking forward to mine tonight!

Great looking food.
Summer is all about berries for me – I adore raspberries and blueberries. Strawberries are good but I find regular supermarket ones don’t taste like they used to and only buy organic now.

I love raspberries soooo much! Blueberries are a close second. I prefer them frozen though. I grow blackberries so I look forward to them in August!
