Today’s Menu: Bison Smoked Cheddar Burger w/ Green Giant Green Beans w/ Almonds and Mozzarella Cheese Sticks

It was freezer cleaning floater day around here to day as we cleaned out the refrigerator's freezer and my Mom's stand up freezer today. So for dinner it was a Potluck Dinner of the odds and ends we found floating in the freezers. You know how easy it is to let leftovers and half packages of different items gradually get pushed back to the back of your freezer and then wonder how come you don't have any room in your freezer! My Mom prepared her and my Dad Potluck Dinner and I prepared mine. I had Bison Smoked Cheddar Burger w/ Green Giant Green Beans w/ Almonds with a apptiezer of baked Mozzarella Cheese Sticks.

I had a Wild Idea Buffalo 1/4 lb. Bison Burger. I seasoned it with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn. I pan fried it in Extra Virgin Olive Oil about 3 minutes per side. It fried up perfectly! I topped it with a slice of Bordon’s Smoked Cheddar Cheese and served it on a Healthy Life Whole Grain Bun. I love Bison meat over Beef and Wild Idea is even tastier than normal Bison. It's got that slight taste of Wild game and a little hint of sweet. Wild Idea Buffalo is one of the best I've had. Looking forward to trying their other cuts of Buffalo.

For sides I had an appetizer of baked Alexia Mozzarella Sticks and a single serving of Green Giant Green Beans w/ Almonds. I had enough of the Alexia Mozzarella Sticks leftover for everyone to have an appetizer. The Green Giant Green Beans come frozen in a microwavable pouch. Just heat for 3 minutes and it's ready. Sometimes a freezer Potluck meal is the best! For dessert/snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.
