Chicken Gyro and Date night

Chicken Gyro with Chickpea Salad text

I made this the other day and it was amazing! I’ve made my version of Chicken Gyros a few times in the past and realized it hasn’t made it on the blog yet.

The first time I made this, I found a recipe in a magazine. I used chicken cutlets and layered it with different ingredients. Then, I baked it in the oven. I’m not sure where that recipe is now. In a box somewhere in the garage probably.

For this recipe, I added some of the beer I used in the Lemon Bars. I had all my ingredients mixed in a bowl and the beer was just sitting there. I was going to drink it but realized it was only 9:30. That’s a little to early for anything but coffee.

Chickpea and Cucumber Salad

Huck told me he really like the Chick-a-Pea Salad. I laughed and told him they were called Chickpeas! But I’m calling them Chick-a-Peas from now on.

Date Night

Huck pulled a stick from our Date Night Jar Wednesday.

This is one of the dates Huck added to the jar.

We decided to find a Burger place we’ve never been to. I pulled up Google and found Chuck Burger Joint on PGA in Palm Beach Gardens.

After we went to the gym, we headed over for dinner. I’ve past this place a hundred times and never noticed it.

The first thing I did noticed was the small menu. Nothing annoys me more than a big menu. I get overwhelmed with too many options. One page menus make me happy. I can’t second guess myself to many times.

Huck ordered the ChuckBurger with Bacon, and I ordered the BellaBurger. My “burger” was a grilled portabella mushroom with avocado, lettuce, tomato, and chuck sauce (like a flavored mayo). And we split an order of fries.

When we got our order, we both agreed, the burgers were pretty small. About the size of a regular cheese burger at McDonalds.

Huck said his burger was OK, but I really enjoyed mine. I’ve seen portabellas burgers before but never ordered one. I’m definitely a fan! And we both agreed the fries were good.

I’m not sure if Huck would return, but I would order the BellaBurger again.

Weekend Plans

We do not have much planned for this weekend. We are going to the Food Truck Invasion in Downtown Abacoa tonight and hoping to go back to the beach.

Oopie loved the beach last weekend.

Let me rephrase. He loved the beach… Hated the water! A wave attached him. He wasn’t happy with us after that!

This is the “I’m wet and hate you” face!

We made him a little shade to keep cool. He was happy here. He could people watch without fear of another wave attack!

Well, that’s all for now. I hope everyone has a great weekend.

  1. London I’m sure enjoyed going to the beach and probably liked the water not the salt . Have a good day.
