Mini Chicken Burger on a Baby Bella Mushroom

Thanks to Sandra's Easy Cooking Recipes

 

First let me thank you all for wonderful comments, I am well and ready to share some new recipes! It was such a hot day, and I needed something very light for lunch as well to get my stomach get use to real food all over again. I was eating really, really light meals, if we can even call "a meal" soups, fresh fruit and veggies, teas and pieces of burned toast...I was not ready for any kind of meat..but today as I felt like a new person felt that chicken burger would be perfect for me. It has less fat, and in combination with mushrooms it gave wonderful flavor! These are mini, but you can also use Portabella mushroom cups and form bigger chicken burgers!
