Sabrina's EPICure Journey

Let’s talk lunch today! Before all the craziness in the world started, I loved going to Costco on Saturdays and after shopping, have a hot dog and poutine! While freakin delicious, not very sodium healthy. Or diet healthy. Since we have all been at home more, we’ve had to change the way we do things. Next time you want a burger for lunch (or hot dog!), whip up one of these babies! You can even make rhem ahead of time and freeze them to keep them handy! ... https://epicure.com/en-ca/recipe/southwest-turkey-burgers
