July 4, 2012- Portabella Burgers with Homemade Maccaroni Salad

Portabella Burgers with Homemade Macaroni Salad

Usually for Memorial day and the 4th of July Nick and I still try to feel "American" and have a "burger" obviously it is a veggie burger so we decided to go for a portabella mushroom burger this time. We bought some ciabatta rolls to serve them on and some swiss cheese. Nick marinated them in olive oil and balsamic vinegar and we cooked them on our make shift grill (meaning our flat plan on the stove) and I decided to buck up and buy mayonnaise to make some homemade macaroni salad. I don't really like mayo and I don't like having it in my house but I knew to make macaroni salad I needed to buy it so I did. The macaroni salad was pretty good. Our burgers were messy with an addition of avocado but delicious. We downed a cold glass of beer and enjoyed some good old fireworks that night. Happy 236th birthday America. We'll enjoy another burger next year.
