Favorite Meals Part 1 - Turkey Burgers

   It's starting to feel like my body is adjusting to being off of soy. I feel SO much better. I am so thankful that I was able to swap food with someone a few nights ago, so that I can still be on Medifast until my next order comes.
   Now, I normally do not cook, as I have said. But now I have had a new drive. And there are some foods out there that are a must! So, I am going to talk about the first one I tried. The "My Big Skinny Greek Turkey Burger. I was a little apprehensive to try it. I've had turkey burgers before, and they were kind of bland. This recipe made two, thick, burgers. And, I was in love with just one bite. It was full of flavor, and even juicy! I knew right away it was something I'd make over and over. It was 277 calories, 1 carb, 3 grams fat, 59 grams protein, and 408 mg sodium-as told by MyFittnessPal app. Yes, it really filled me up, and this was on my second day of the diet. So it was so wonderful to me!
Another turkey burger thing I went with was the All American A1 Stuffed Turkey Burger. My first try on this didn't go so well. I don't think I cooked it long enough. And I know that next time, I may go with less cheese in the middle. That kind of overwhelmed me. It was good though. I haven't made it again, but I'm thinking that I know now what I am going to have for dinner tonight! And, I have it as 414 calories, 3 carbs, 19 grams fat, 46 grams protein, and 24 mg sodium. So, much higher in calories and fat, but good on the sodium.
   See, I'm one of those people that I learn by doing. When I make a mistake, then I know what NOT to do next time. So, I kind of expect my first go to be not perfect.
