Happy #NationalBurgerDay! I swear there's like a hundred different burger holidays. I'm not complaining. Any excuse to eat a burger I'll take it.

𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗸!

That was my dinner tonight. That's all. No clever or insightful caption. I'm totally just phoning it in this time on the posting.

I decided to enter the @beardfoundation x @bonappetitmag #BlendedBurgerContest again this year. A blended burger needs to contain 25% mushroom in the mix. The idea is to make burgers more sustainable. This burger is topped with pepperoni, mozzarella, mushrooms, onions and sauteed tomatoes. Last year although I wasn't deemed a winner I received a cool kitchen apron. This year I went with a pizza themed burger. You can see both my recipes on my website. I just posted the new one now.

So I tried two different things yesterday. First I tried out that viral French Toast Omelette Sandwich. It was a cool hack to have both great brunch items in one. It did like getting the flavors and texture of French Toast with the cheese and bacon of an omelette. However, for the amount of time it takes to make one sandwich I don't think I'll be making these often. Second, as you can see, I'm starting to play with video. I need a lot more practice. So what do you all think? Should I keep doing more videos? #AlexEatsTooMuch

Last night I finally got to try the @bluesparrowpgh Chorizo Queso Burrito. This thing is amazing. First let's talk about how it's loaded with chorizo and fried potatoes. I love that. Then there's just that egg just perfectly set in the middle. Then there's that crema to bring all the flavors together. This burrito, just like most things I've eaten from Blue Sparrow lives up to the hype. I also replenished my beer supply last night.

Seriously, you all must be like WTF is Alex posting right now. A salad!?!?! Yep. I know. I hate it too. I really don't like salads. But you know what? I actually eat them for lunch more than you would think. Why? Because it's a great way to balance and add more vegetables to the diet. I'll never like salads. No one will ever convince me to truly like a salad. Don't even try.

𝗜𝗺𝗽𝘂𝗹𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗟𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵...𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸!
I saw @burgatorybar had been running a bunch of deals on Instagram and one of them last week was for the Morty's Steakhouse burger with Horseradish Cheddar, Caramelized Onions & Haystack Onions. It had been so long since so got a burger from Burgatory I had actually forgotten how much I like them. Sometimes being impulsive with meals definitely pays off.

No guarantees it lasts long though. This weekend I realized it was time to start mixing in more veggies and less red meat and fried food into my stay at home diet. I started tonight with some grilled salmon and zucchini. I might even attempt a salad or two. Crazy times call for crazy actions.

I just stuffed my face with these sweet new @jennyleeswirlbread Small Batch Sticky Buns for brunch. They sent me some of them to try and they make a great easy breakfast. These are so easy to make as each one is individually packaged in a compostable container. It just goes in the microwave and the syrup melts overtop. So, of course I made myself 3 to devour. These are available at Shop 'n Save and on the Jenny Lee website.

Last weekend I got to experience a new empanada popup in Pittsburgh @empanadafusion. I got a box of 6 empanadas which I reheated quickly at home and quickly devoured. I got an assortment of different delicious fillings like traditional beef, tandoori chicken, pear & Brie and red pepper & spinach. Each one pairs well with their different sauces. They are currently doing preorders for future drops.
