Don't close that ... trunk!

So I went shopping this morning and when I took my groceries out to the car I locked them in the trunk, along with my keys. As a result, I wound up eating lunch at a little Greek restaurant nearby while I waited for the cavalry (aka Marty) to arrive with a spare key. While I love this place, I'm just saying it wasn't in the plans. I was still really aggravated with myself when I sat down in the restaurant and distracted by the situation so I ordered kind of weird. First I ordered a Gyro with the sauce on the side and then realized that I really wanted more veggies. So I ordered a small Greek salad and ate some of the gyro meat and pita bread along with it. Now I have more than enough leftover meat for another lunch or two. I suppose this is not a bad thing.

For dinner I made burgers. I started with 4 oz of 90/10 grass fed beef for each one which cooked down to about 3 - 3.5 oz on the grill. I topped them with grilled onions and a cheese sauce that I made by melting some light whipped cream cheese together with some sharp cheddar for flavor. On the side I made an arugula salad with fresh figs, toasted walnuts, shaved parmesan and a crumble of applewood smoked bacon with a raspberry balsamic vinaigrette. To make the dressing I took a few spoonfuls of sugar free strawberry preserves (Polaner) and a few fresh raspberries and heated them together in the microwave until the preserves had melted and the berries had broken down. Then I mixed in some balsamic vinegar, a little olive oil, some chopped shallots and salt & pepper to taste.
