Okay, the slaw is easy.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, jalapeno, dill pickles and dill pickle juice.
Toss to blend.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream and cider vinegar with the salt, sugar and black pepper.
Pour the sour cream mixture over the cabbage and toss to blend. Refrigerate until ready to use.
By the way, sliced dill pickles in this slaw is so unexpected yet so fantastic and tangy, gives the slaw a real bite!

Now onto the Cheese Burgers...
Here's the fixins. The recipe calls for beef brisket.
My grocery store does not carry beef brisket; they suggested 93% lean ground beef, which I used and it was fine.
Be interesting to try beef brisket though.

Sautee the onion, carrot and celery in the oil.
Cook until the veggies become tender and slightly caramelized, 10-12 minutes. In another bowl, mix the brisket with the mayo.

Next, mix in the vegetables and bread crumbs into the brisket mixture and form into eight even patties about
3/4 inch thick.
3/4 inch thick.
Grill the hamburger patties on an indoor or outdoor grill.
I used a stove top grill because that's what Alex used on her cooking show.
Ta-Daaaaa!!!!
These burgers are fantastically tasty with the sauteed veggies and mayo mixed in there, Super yummy. With a slice of cheese melted on top....Heaven! *cue angels singing*
And lastly, we begin the fat free, super healthy
Fried Zucchini.
Disclaimer:The fat free and super healthy descriptors
are a lie.
Although zucchini is a vegetable. That's not a lie. And isn't zucchini good for you?
Here's the
fixins for this fine
Pub Meal side dish.
Slice 4 medium zucchini lengthwise, like pickles.
Pour oil into a heavy bottomed pan and heat to 350 degrees.
Make the breading mixture by combining the bread crumbs and Parmesan in a bowl.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and the splash of water.
Toss sliced zucchini in salt, dredge in flour, submerge in the egg mixture and roll in the breadcrumb mixture until all are coated on all sides.
Transfer to a platter.
Prepare a baking sheet fitted with a kitchen towel and a slotted spoon to remove zucchini from oil.
Drop a few pieces of zucchini into the oil at a time and gently swirl the oil as they fry.
When they are light to medium brown, remove them with the spoon and lay them out on the kitchen towel to cool.
Sprinkle with a touch of salt and paprika.
Plate up the savory Cheese Burgers, yummy tangy Slaw, and Fried Zucchini.
Be prepared to loosen your belt a notch or two. This is one fine, tasty meal!
