One yoga session and the tiniest little pop in my knee and voila. Hamburger gravy is what you would call minced beef (we call it hamburger or ground beef). It is cooked in a frying pan, the grease drained off, a bit of flour stirred in and then add milk and continue to simmer until it makes a gravy. No hamburgers. Served over mashed potatoes. The funny thing is that had we eaten supper at home, we'd have had the exact same thing. Tim loves gravy and mashed potatoes. <br /><br />AC: https://www.treehugger.com/ramps-wild-leeks-recipes-4868529Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721950935860033351.post-54656180534562502022021-04-26T08:21:02.973-04:002021-04-26T08:21:02.973-04:00Leeks grow wild in the forest?
