Last night I attended a fabulous event with a group of blogger friends hosted by Chef Suzy Singh.
We even had our own sous chef, students attending Le Cordon Bleu’s cooking program.
I’m a big fan of Now Solutions which is based in Bolingbrook, IL. Last summer I shared a few of my favorite beauty products which included Now Solutions Sweet Almond Oil. I’ve been using their personal care collection for several years and had no idea they had a food line – Now Foods.
One of the recipes we prepared was the most amazing dairy and gluten free burgers. So delish that I’m adding to my Super Bowl menu. You have to try these out and let me know what you think.
Note: The recipe is detailed just as we prepared. I will be making a few modifications that are specified in the instructions. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
