Inside-Out Burgers
Warm Green Bean and Brown Rice Salad

Cooking time:  25 minutes for menu           Cooking schedule: see below for instructions

          We normally don't eat buns with our burgers - mainly because it's too much food and We'd rather have more burger.  But I like tomato and cheese on it..... Or in it. These work best with a basket as they don't stay together well.  Or a grill pan....

Inside-Out Burgers

Total time: 20 minutes
    The cheese and tomato are on the inside.  The cheese melts (barely) but the tomato stays firm.  Serve with or without buns.

Warm Green Bean and Brown Rice Salad 

Total time: 30 minutes
     I use 'Uncle Ben's' which is all I can get and it's quick cooking.  It looks like brown Basmati and cooks in 15 minutes.  You can use regular Basmati if you prefer.  This salad is good warm or cold, so timing is not an issue.

Note: Toast sesame seeds in a dry, nonstick skillet, over medium-high heat, 3 - 6 minutes. Start flipping them or shaking the skillet after 1 - 2 minutes and remove as soon as light brown.
