Triple Digit Meal

When it is over 100, I would rather not cook. I would rather just consume this:

Lemonade concentrate and mint, put in a blender. Add club soda.

But if you simply must cook (ie. Robin can't afford to lose any more weight ;) ). Make a black bean burger that takes very little time and requires no oven.

Ingredients:
-1 cup black beans
-1 egg
-1/3 cup bread crumbs
-garlic powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper

Mash half the black beans. Add the other ingredients and fry in a hot pan.

The other key piece of this was some quick pseudo-pickled cucumber.

For that:
-1/2 cup white vinegar
-1/4 cup white sugar
-2 cucumbers, thinly sliced
-1/3 red onion, sliced

Mix vinegar and sugar. Bring to a boil. Let cool for a few minutes, then add to cucumbers and red onions. Refrigerate.

This was last night. With some celebratory ACA wine. A really lovely day.
