Bar food without the guilt. Or the hangover.

After discovering my love for the meyer, I set out to use them again. Being a “school” night, I went with a more substantial use. (read: not in a cocktail) Baked Meyer Lemon Fries. Incredible, I tell you.
Salty, crunchy, lemony-tart potatoes.
Better than real fries. Seriously!
And it gets even better…served alongside a Mushroom and Swiss Patty Melt. Man alive this was an incredible dinner. Comfort food at it’s finest.
The recipe called for “ground sirloin” rather than “ground beef.” So I decided to splurge on the sirloin. So worth the price. This beef was full of flavor. Honestly, nothing was added to the meat before it was cooked (in the cast iron skillet – word up). It was so juicy and full of flavor. I was blown away. And about the mushrooms and onions. I wanted a bowl of those. Nothing else. They thickened up with the addition of tapioca flour (recipe called for all purpose). And the Guinness added such depth of flavor. Bar food without the guilt. Or the hangover.
I think we talked about what we were eating the entire meal.
“mmmmm, these fries.” “the mushrooms are incredible….are there any left?”
Both plates were licked clean.
