I think I have an addictive personality. I’ll find something I really like and can’t get my mind off of it. Like Americanos with heavy cream, dear lord, it’s so stupid good. So I’ve probably spent $100+ at Starbucks in the past month. Fail. But my newest addiction, other than paleo cake of course, is broccoli. Like, obsessed. I want it at every meal. Breakfast, lunch, AND dinner. I’m counting my heads of broccoli I eat in a week and I’ll update you later. Since Saturday though, I’ve had 11 heads of broccoli. Eleven. It’s Tuesday people. That’s so ridiculous. I think it may be reason #56 why I don’t have a boyfriend…think about what my breath must smell like with that much broccoli being consumed. I know I’m sure as hell not brushing after every meal. And I feel like I probably smell like broccoli when I sweat. So cute. Adorable to be exact.

This meal was made at my friend Sarah’s house. Remember a couple blogs back when I talked about how much I hate sports, especially fantasy sports? Well this was the night I had to put up with 5 females, all creating a fantasy football league…on a SATURDAY NIGHT. Ew. So what did I do? I cooked, of course. And slept on the living room floor. But this recipe turned out pretty damn good. It’s super simple and the picture looks like sh*t since I took it at 10pm in a kitchen with crap lighting, so stop judging based on the pics. It really was delicious. And please take in and appreciate Sarah’s fine dishware. I think she stole it from my grandma.

    Do you think it’s possible to make the patties ahead of time, refrigerate and then cook the next day? Thank you!
