Come along to celebrate with my family this week!
Its a big week here at the Knecht house.
My youngest turns 12!
As a tradition, he gets to pick dinner for his special day.
What will he pick this year?
If I had to guess, I would bet on any one of these meals.

The birthday boy likes spicy, decadent foods, making mac and cheese with chorizo a great choice.
He loves salmon, so salmon cakes with spicy mayo may be the winner.
Thai food is requested often and he happily eats ground chickenmaybe chicken larb lettuce wraps?

The only obvious answer I know is true is chocolate cake.
The birthday boy is crazy forguacamole, so I’ll be making some of that too.
Nacho Burgers
Longer, warmer spring days means that we can use the grill once again.

This also takes it from being a side dish to the main course.
Serve with thisMexican green bean salad.
Shape the mixture into patties and pan fry them until golden brown and impressive looking.

The spicy mayo and a generous squeeze of lemon juice really helps cut through the richness.
Pop it onto a butter lettuce leaf with rice for the perfect bite or two.
Its quick, easy, and packed with flavor, while still leaving room for dessert.
