Burgers for the Holidays

Burgers for the Holidays

As an Amer­i­can liv­ing in Canada, I get to cel­e­brate two sum­mer holidays–Canada Day and the 4th Fourth of July. And like Thanks­giv­ing, the other hol­i­day I get to dou­ble up on, it has every­thing to do with the food. Well, the food and fireworks.

You kind of can’t have a July cel­e­bra­tion with­out ham­burg­ers. I guess you could but I may feel a wee bit cheated if I’m invited. And you may think burg­ers only belong on the menu for the kids, you should recon­sider when it comes to these babies. These hefty burg­ers have all the bite of a juicy beef ver­sion with the ben­e­fits of a lighter alter­na­tive. We’ve even got a meat­less selec­tion for you. So fire up the grill and get out the sparklers, it’s time to make some sum­mer memories.
