Bacon Burger Soup
When you just feel like a cheeseburger but you don't want to go the whole carbs thing. This will sort you out. Add the onion rings to really get it!
OK, whose bright idea is this one? Well, maybe mine I guess. If you are trying to stay away from burgers (though if you make the Bacon Beef Burgers found in Tenina's America cookbook, why would you?) then here are all the flavours with none of the gluten.
It will also feed a small army or a large family, which can be handy on a cold night or a night when you just cannot be bothered with a big deal.
You will need to make these as well... Tempura-battered Onion Rings
And it would be great with a drizzle of this... Hot Cheese Dip
Or some of these... Corn Chips
Did I just make it complicated? You could always go get burgers, but how disappointed would the children be?? Do it for the children! (hahaha)
