**Beef Burgers Just Like The Shop But Better**

Hi Home Edders! it has been a while since I posted not because I don't have love for you all, but because I ended up putting my kids in school due to work and life commitments. But I am thinking about popping in from time to time with the home education that we do still do at home that school won't cover.

Lately it has been all about cooking and I really want to pass that knowledge and information onto my children so they have basic life skills. Today's recipe is Beef Burger Patties!

If you're an older millennial you'll have a distent memory of the old school fast food burgers which are way different today. Growing up, I remember the juicy flavorful patties of the 80s and 90s before everything changed for cost cutting measures.

Those burgers were simple but packed with flavor and today I am going to show you how to make those old school burgers!

As always getting my kids involved in the kitchen is always a fun and messy adventure. They love hands on cooking and making burger patties from scratch was the perfect activity that also teached them valuable life skills.

The ingredients used were:

800grams beef 30/70 ratio

Orgegano (this is optional)

Bread crumbs (I used Panko)

Garlic Powder

Onion Powder

Worcestershire sauce

MSG

1 Egg

Tomato Sauce

These basic ingredients will provide you a world filled with flavour and while I cooked them on the stove, you can opt for an outdoor grill or bbq so that fat drips out.

You can also make them into BLT's but I just had them as your basic cheese burger which was fine and the kids absolutely loved!

Cooking with kids is always a great experience that also provides us the ability to hand down generational recipes and helps them learn to be self sufficent as adults. Today we made homemade gnocchi. It’s hands on, a little messy but needed to help kids grow and learn

In this video tutorial with my kids on how to make gnocchi from scratch you will learn how to make this staple from scratch.

One of the best things about making gnocchi is that it’s simple enough for kids to get involved. My kids love any chance to work with dough and this recipe gave them plenty of opportunities to knead, roll and shape the little potato pillows.

It was a great way to introduce them to basic cooking skills while having fun together in the kitchen.

Cooking together isn’t just about food as it builds teamwork, patience and creativity. My kids had a blast rolling out the dough and cutting it into bite sized pieces although they didn't look ecaxtly like the store ones but tasted better.

They even got competitive about who could make the best looking gnocchi!

So come and learn an ancient recipe for yourself.
