Mini Meaty Fruity Salad

I was having a hard time writing this entry until I put my hood on and now I feel supa fly, so breezies, I GOT DIS.

I went to TJs (they should seriously be paying me to promote all of their deliciousness) and came back with a grip of groceries.

One of the items that I purchased were those lil ground beef patties. I mean lil bitty, 75 calories each sucka! I just wanted to prepare the lot of them so that I'd have lean protein access easier than Lady Gaga's entry to a cabaret in the Castro.

I seasoned them with salt, pepper, garlic powder, Maggi's and a drizzle fo shizzle of Siracha at the end. I also put in some fresh cilantro and ginger tidbits, then covered and let those blessed aromas conquer my mini meats.
OH MY DEAR BABY JESUS DIPPED IN IMMACULATE ANGEL GRAVY, these smelled so good. 
Next up, I threw in my bell peppers to the same pan that my beef babies were birthed in. Waste not, want not! 


At this point, I just have a plate of majesty:


But there is nothing majestic about a humdrum hodgepodge meal (Please disregard my last grey soup post, that is just plain embarrassing. Have you no dignity, Adele?!?!).

Luckily, I'm the best and I came up with this salad:





Bada bing, bada tasty, I crumbled the salty ginger beef patty (just one!) over a bed of baby spinach with the sautéed bell papers, and some tangerine slices. And cilantro, generous amounts of chopped cilantro. For a dressing, because the beef was so salty and flavorful, all I needed was fresh squeezed grapefruit!


This ended up being a super healthy, super flavorful, super freaking duper salad. I ain't mad at it. Also, for your viewing (dis)pleasure, I have created a slideshow of how to best enjoy this meal. 



PASSIONATE NOURISHMENT!!!!!!!!
