Rather than just hang around while my friend took care of her four kids, I thought I’d help with dinner. It was one of those instances where there was a ton in the fridge but nothing to eat. They did have a bowl of leftover rice, though, and plenty of Asian condiments (they each spent part of their college age years in the Philippines). So I went with the obvious: fried rice. Finding the right vegetables required a bit more searching (we almost couldn’t find an onion), but I am sure we put together something almost as good as Jenny’s fantastic recipe for fried rice she just posted today.

We live on the top level of our apartment building, so we don’t have anywhere to store a grill. There’s nothing like being able to grill in the summer; it keeps your house cool, it allows you to enjoy some sunshine and fresh air, and it makes clean-up a breeze!

If you’ve got a grill, use it, you never know when it’ll be ripped away from you! I can’t wait until we can move to a building where we might be able to have a grill. A girl can dream, right?

Cover recipe- Bon Appetit, Grilled Turkey Burgers with Cheddar and Smoky Aioli: August 2009 I love this cover of Bon Appetit… just a simple photograph of this really delicious-looking burger, labeled with the title of being The Ultimate Turkey Burger. That’s a pretty big title to live up to, right? This recipe was placed into a section of the magazine called, “fast easy fresh,” quick dishes for every-night cooking from the Bon Appetit test kitchen. I’ve tried so many different burger recipes, and many of them have been turkey burgers.
