My 9 year old niece decided the day before the Burger-Palooza Contest that she wanted to submit her own entry. She went with a chicken sandwich for the “alternative burger” category because she doesn’t eat\/like beef burgers. Abby worked on her ingredient list and\u00a0my bro and her\u00a0hit the grocery store for supplies. They decided to use the George Foreman Grill so she could cook the chicken by herself – with some minimal supervision from her Dad.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ab named her chicken sandwich the U.S.A. Burger<\/strong> – “Ultimate Super Amazing Burger<\/strong>” and she created her own recipe page on the computer which was presented to me in a frame. My heart melted. This creative little person is MY niece! I am so in love with the way she thinks and I can’t get over how fast she has grown up – right before my eyes.\u00a0 It’s just so amazing to be part of her life – especially since I don’t have children of my own.<\/p>\n

Abby picked her own spices and condiments for her chicken sandwich. A dash here, a sprinkle there… hmmm, wonder what her thought process was to determine if it needed a dash or a sprinkle? She brought the meat all spiced up in a Ziploc bag. Aunt Kath pulled through with some lettuce and mayo (She texted to see if I had some extra) and she got to work in the kitchen with her Dad. He got the Foreman fired up\/plugged in and she put the chicken on, closed the lid and watched it cook. She put a generous amount of BBQ sauce on top of the chicken…\u00a0 generous as in glug, glug, super glug, OMG!\u00a0 She ended up asking her Dad to help her take some off.<\/p>\n
