That’s a Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato, Avocado, and Colby Jack Burger. With mayonnaise, ketchup, and pickles.
One of the most perfect food-combinations on the planet.
I usually have at least an inkling of an idea in the morning of what I’m cooking for dinner, but this morning I was a blank. And about midway through the day – with the weather approaching 70° – burgers and fries seemed to be just the thing. And ripe avocado, hot-house tomatoes from New York – no Florida tomatoes in this house – and bacon and lettuce and … and …
I really love an over-the-top burger. A 6+ napkin monstrosity that is so messy I need a shower after eating it. Heaven.
To even begin to eat this thing tonight, I had to cut it in half. And once you pick up a half, you’re committed. There’s no putting it down. It’s a roll-up-the-sleeves-elbows-on-the-table-hunched-over-the-plate-slip-sliding dining experience. Miss Manners would frown – until she took her first bite!
Here’s to warm weather!
