Mary Lou’s Chicken and Vegetable Burgers with the Works
Aquinnah, Massachusetts
The Story:
Hi Laurie and all,
Not 3 days after I permanently moved here into retirement in Aquinnah, Mass from Mamaroneck, I was bitten by a lone star tick and my life changed.
I became allergic to and could no longer eat red meat or dairy or anything from a mammal. That includes marshmallows, gelatin, gel cap pills, monoclonal antibodies, milk chocolate!
But I discovered a new way of eating that I am now quite fond of.
One of the happy discoveries I made was a cookbook by fellow Aquinnah residents-the Pollans. Michael Pollan is an author who has become notable for his championing of healthy, plant based eating. Tracy is famous for her star turn in Family Ties with her now husband Michael J. Fox. And she, her sisters and mom put together a wonderful cookbook.
Their chicken and veggie burgers are a stand out!! Better than a beef burger! Be sure to top it with sliced avocado. Totally yummy!
Sometimes adversity works in your favor!!!
