We are a group of women ranging in age from 27-32. 2011 marks the 5th Fall season of us getting together weekly, on Thursdays, to make dinner for eachother, talk about our kids, marriages, jobs, weddings, homes, weekends and so on. We travel as far North as Kirkland and as far South as Graham to visit each week...that's a total of nearly an hour of driving (not counting traffic), so that should show you how dedicated we are to "the cause" of having some girl time each week. A few of us are mothers and have planned our weddings. Our group also includes a dietitian, wine distributor & a few teachers ranging from elementary to high school. We are here to share our favorite recipes, update you on our girl talk each week, answer questions from experience and review products for companies and share our takes on them for the women out there just like us. Please feel free to contact us with topics you'd like us to cover or questions you may have. Our group e-mail is ThursdayGirlsNights@gmail.com Thanks again, The Girls

Summer Salmon Burgers

I have to say I was a little weirded out thinking salmon on a burger was going to be dinner at Danielle's house. It totally worked and tasted amazing! Super simple with a delicious garlic-dill aioli. Make your neighbors jealous as you fire them up on the grill.

Danielle buys the  packaged frozen salmon burgers from Costco and says "It is important
to get wild Alaskan salmon as opposed to farmed Atlantic salmon.".

She grilled the burgers for about 7 minutes on each side and topped
them with provolone cheese. Atop toasted buns we slathered on a garlic-dill
aioli sauce. She found the recipe on food network and modified it
slightly:

Ingredients-
1/2 cup light mayo
2-3 TBSP Dijon mustard
1 small package fresh dill- chopped (about 2-3 oz)
1-2 tsp minced garlic (to taste)
3 TBSP chives
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
lemon juice to taste
-Mix all ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Along with the burgers we had a classic fave- Suddenly Salad and a
spinach salad with white balsamic vinaigrette.

The perfect Summer BBQ plate.

We have been asked to review a site on our blog but want to get a few opinions firts. Has anyone used CouponChief.com before? A few of us will be looking into it to see what we can post as far as a review of the site goes. If you are familiar with it please email us with your thoughts (thursdaygirlsnights@gmail.com). Thanks!
