Big Mac Attack! Better than the real thing...

Living in abroad for a few years gives us lots of opportunities but it also means lots of cultural differences. Now my fam and I rarely went to eat fast food dinner. Seriously few times a year tops. Even when traveling we'd opt for something like subway a lot. But lets face it sometimes you want some fast food. Well. Here they do not have fast food available everywhere like they do in the good ol States. SO last night I made us our own Big Macs. And they were so much better than what you'd get from McD's....

The Sauce is key to the recipe.
1/4c miracle whip
1/4c mayo
1tsp finely (super fine not just chopped) onion
3 tbs French dressing
1/8th tsp salt
1 tsp white vinegar
1 tsp ketchup
1 tsp sugar
3tbs sweet pickle relish

Stir it all together. Microwave 25 seconds. Stir again and refrigerate at least 1 hr. before serving...

For the burger You know how it goes. Toasted buns. shredded iceberg lettuce. sliced pickles. a little extra finely chopped onion. AND 2 2 oz. super thin patties.

*tip for the burgers. let the lean beef come to room temp and measure out your 2 oz sections. I rolled them into a ball and then used a round glass to just flatten them really thin since they puff up when cooking. and don't forget to salt and pepper!

Assemble and eat your heart out! We had green beans and tots with extra sauce on the side since it was that good. seriously....
