Fresh cooked beets and a homemade chicken burger. I think that ground chicken works well in burgers with some extra spice added. I have always thought of burgers being of beef til now.

Grocery shopped today and half the chicken legs I got are now in the cp with some bbq sauce.

It's Friday which means "take out" so I'm thinking Wendy's for dinner.
Wanted something simple, before I snacked myself full..! Frozen stir fry veggies, white rice and soy sauce. Its all we needed to fill us up. It is HOT outside so it had to be quick and simple.
It is really hot here too, so we had bagels with smoked salmon (and cream cheese, capers, cucumber, tomato). That's one of out hot weather favorites.
OMG, that is my favorite. Thank you for reminding me to put it on the menu for next week! (DH doesn't like smoked salmon, so he can have a burger)
As for using up those tomatoes and cucumbers, I made gazpacho yesterday. In the past, I've made a chunky version--this was a pureed version (supposedly "authentic" Spanish gazpacho). It was a smoothie-style recipe--throw into the blender tomatoes, cukes, green pepper, garlic, sherry vinegar, salt and pepper--and the surprise ingredient: a slice of white bread-- and just puree. Couldn't be easier, and you can freeze it, too. Pretty tasty, although I did overdo the garlic slightly.
You can add garnishes, and I think next time I m make it I'll add crumbled hard boiled egg as a garnish to add some protein.

White beans would also work for extra protein, although I'd probably thrown them in the blender, and leave out the bread. (I made gazpacho this week too!)next time I m make it I'll add crumbled hard boiled egg as a garnish to add some protein.
