Heart Attack!

So there are a small number of dishes I came up with one day on a bit of a challenge for myself. With many dishes taking on the challenge of being cheap, delicious, and satisfying, I got a few great things I make when money is tight. Something even more of a challenge is coming up with vegan dishes from scratch that are edible. I am tough to please without meat, so being the toughest critic, I thought it was the perfect challenge, and even had some success... but that isn't what this post is planning on covering.

I have generally tried to balance cost and staying healthy. Among the challenges previously set one day, it finally occurred to me one day: What is the most insanely delicious entrée conceivable?

There was a lot of thought involved, and it eventually result in my first experiment of this series.

Heart Attack Burger

• 1lb lean ground beef

• 1lb uncooked bacon (not smoked bacon)

• 1 lb white mushrooms sliced

• 1 large white or yellow onion sliced

• 2 tsp coarse ground Peppercorn

• 2 tsp Salt

• 2 tbsp Worcestershire

• 1 tbsp Cornstarch

• 2 slices each Munster and Swiss cheese

• Choice of bun (large)

Separate bacon slices and place in large frying pan. Cook at medium heat on stove, covered, for 20 minutes. Remove bacon and set aside. Form burger to patty shape and cook medium well to well in bacon grease , and set aside. Add mushrooms and onion to bacon grease. Add Salt, Pepper, and Worcestershire. Stir uncovered till cooked thoroughly. Sift in Cornstarch and stir till thoroughly dissolved.
