Welcome to My Kitchen

This is the place that I love to be. I like to be creative and cooking is what is doing it for me these days. It's kind of a necessity and it makes me feel accomplished. I like knowing what we are eating and where it comes from. I go out of my way to make sure this happens.
I like that I don't buy several household staples from a grocery store. I enjoy making applesauce, jams and jellies, apple butter, spaghetti sauce, spicy mustard, pickles and anything else I can.
I like getting dirty, getting my hands into things, feeling and experiencing my food from the beginning to the end. I like making things, growing things and bringing those two together to create a healthy meal. I like nourishing others and knowing that I did my best to give them the best.

Carmelized Onion and Swiss Chicken Burgers with Butternut Squash Fries

I am making some Old World Kitchen brand carmelized onion and swiss cheese chicken patties (purchased at Sam's Club) with butternut squash fries for dinner.  These are only 4.5 WW points and the Arnold's thins that I am using as buns are 2.5 WW points.
 There is a link below for the butternut squash fries, you could use sweet potatoes instead if you wish.  Keep in mind that the nutritionals for the fries are under the old WW system, it works out to 1.5 WW points under the new points.

  1. I love Hungry Girl! I have 2 of her books and get her emails. I have made lots of the recipes. My kids LOVE the onion rings. (Lord of the Onion Rings -- from the first book.)

  2. Kelly-I have two of the Hungry Girl cookbooks and like them a lot too! I am going to start putting some recipes on here other than from the WW New Complete Cookbook even though I love that one. I have never tried the onion rings but they sound delicious.
