So have the parties started for you yet? If they have, you’re probably having that moment or two where you NEED to eat something not so bad for you. I don’t know that his burger is the perfect recovery meal, but, it’s a least a start.

Do you guys like pesto? I have to tell you, I am a pesto freak. I love it. We have access to frech Basil (Albaca) all year round here in Southern Chile and we use it a lot. My Dad really likes it also, so maybe I get it from him, don't know.

If you've never tried ground turkey before, I highly encourage you to. It's a great meat substitute for ground beef. It is way leaner and the flavor is fantastic. We use it a lot in our family dishes, especially in one pot type meals with the spices of the dish over take the flavor of the meat.
