🥘 Aldi chicken burger with Spanish style grains…

Out in the caravan, this is a quick and delicious meal. Cook your burgers on the George Foreman grill, and the grains in the microwave.

🥘  1 pan  🍽 Serves 2   🛒 2 ingredients ⏱ 15 minutes £5

Ingredients:

  • 2 Roosters 100% chicken burgers
  • 1 pack Spanish style grains

Step by step:

  1. Cook your burgers on the grill and pop your Spanish style grains either in the microwave or in a pan on the stove.
  2. Rustle up a salad and dressing or boil some peas.

Notes:

Rooster chicken burgers contain fewer nasties than many other processed foods and are a good quick on-the-go meal. They are low fat and a little salty, so you only need a good grind of black pepper for seasoning.

The Spanish style grains are a nice blend of whole long grain rice, and black rice, spiced with chilli flakes, smoked paprika and yeast extract.
