PUT HERBS IN ICE CUBE TRAYS AS FOLLOWS

Fresh herbs – I use this one all the time. I LOVE the Springdell herb garden. You pick the herbs from the garden, chop them up and put them in the cubes. Add oil and freeze. Remove the cubes and put them in a ziplock. Don’t forget to label them with what herb they are. I also like to do herb combos that I know I use together a lot for pasta sauces etc.

Simple syrup – I make a simple syrup out of equal parts sugar and water. Heat until the sugar has dissolved. You can freeze as is and just pop a cube into a beverage or you can steep the simple syrup with herbs or flavors too. I love to use mint from Springdell and let that steep. I let it sit in there until the syrup is cool, strain out the mint, freeze and I have cubes to use in my iced tea. Delicious.

Lamb Burgers Stuffed with Goat Cheese

by (updated 2852 days ago)
Ingredients: Cheese / Eggs / Garlic / Ground Lamb / Onion / Parsley

Grab some pita bread for this one, we’re going for a ride to scrumptious town! Parsley makes for a great addition if you have any on hand. There is quite a bit of sautéed onion, which curbs the flavor of lamb for those that are lamb averse. Hope you like this one as much as we do!
