Friday Night Special – Sloppy Burger And Coleslaw

If your house is like ours, Fridays are always a little special and this is one way to make it fun. You can curl up in front of the TV and make it a movie night with popcorn to be made later. See if you agree.

• 2 tsp. olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp. fresh rosemary
• 1 1/2 lbs. lean ground beef
• 1/3 cup ketchup
• 1 tsp. Worchestershire sauce
• pinch of salt and pepper
• 4-6 Kaiser buns, halved
• 2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 cups baby spinach, stems removed

Heat the skillet on medium heat, adding the minced garlic, stirring for 60 seconds then add the rosemary. Stir until well mixed. Add the ground beef cooking until no longer pink, then add the ketchup, mustard, salt and pepper and stirring to mix well.

Halve the buns, butter them and place under the broiler until starting to bubble and brown on the rims. When ready to plate, add the cheese to the meat mixture and quickly stir together. Remove from the heat, pile equal portions on the bottom half of each bun, place a generous amount of spinach on top and place the top of the bun.

You can either serve the slaw on the side of the plate yourself or let everyone add their own. Either way, this is yummy. Pickles and a cold  beverage takes this over the top.
