Double Cheeseburger.....yes you heard right!!!

I was browsing some cooking programmes at the weekend and picked up a few recipes to play around with.

Did this one tonight........Nigel Slater made a Ricotta Burger......Minced Beef mixed with Ricotta Cheese....recipe here. So I slimmed it down a bit by substituting Cottage Cheese for the Ricotta, I made mine medium sized and got 8 burgers at 2sp each, added a slice of cheese (3sp) to make a cheeseburger and fried some onions in a bit of spray oil. The bread was a Warburtons thin but I got a bit arty and cut it into a round (this actually halved the weight of the bread and when I put it into the recipe builder it came out as 1sp) but if you like make the burgers bigger and leave the thin as a square (alter your points accordingly)

I know my butternut squash chips look burnt but I like them really well done (and they are cooked with Paprika on them so that colours them a lot too)

Lets stay strong guys
