Tasty Tuesday

It's time again to dig into my recipe box! Years ago when I was on the low carb band wagon with everyone else, I found a low carb cookbook in the Dollar Zone at Target. Ended up being one of the best dollars I ever spent! A ton of the recipes have made it into my regular lineup and this one is my husbands absolute fave. In fact, at one of my bridal showers we played the "how well does the bride know her groom game" and when the question "What is your fiances favorite thing you cook" came up....I knew right away it was my Blue Cheese-Stuffed burgers. Since it is technically supposed to be low-carb, the recipe doesn't call for any buns. It's a pretty hearty burger on it's own so we usually won't use one, but you certainly could if you wanted. I usually serve them up with my favorite grilled veggies found here. Enjoy!
