Hamburgers:
Place store-made hamburger patty on grill or frying pan on high heat for 10 minutes. Flip and allow to cook until juices run clear and then stop entirely. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 15-20 minutes. Serve immediately at room temperature.
Mashed Potatoes:
Peel & cut potato into chunks. Boil in plain water until soft. Drain and place into a bowl with 1/4 cup of SKIM milk. Beat with an electric beater for 30 minutes until smooth. Microwave on high for 10 minutes, scoop directly into mouth.
Thanksgiving Turkey:
Place turkey into oven at 350 degrees for 7 hours. Do not season; do not baste (throw your baster out). Remove turkey and let rest for 1 hour while preparing mashed potatoes (above). Serve cold and dry.
"Asian" Rice:
Prepare Uncle Ben's rice as per box instructions. Add soy sauce to taste (i.e., until the color of soy sauce). [Can be served with Slow-Cooker Pork Loin.]
