I thought I’d leave you with another great MLS photo for today.
Seriously, do agents not look at the pictures that they post in the MLS…or does someone think this is acceptable?
Happy weekend!

Some of you know the excitement that our family has had with my daughter, Courtney and her prize winning hamburger at Red Robin. Fast forward 2 years and I thought you’d enjoy an update and to know that Courtney (& her burger) will be featured in a cooking segment tomorrow on Fox 15’s Sonoran Living sometime between 9-10am.
Last fall Courtney re-entered a variation of her burger and made it to the top 50 nationally again earning another gift card and a spot in the cookbook that Red Robin is selling to benefit the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.
Here’s an article that ran this month in several community newspapers (North Gilbert Breeze, The Groves Report, & The View) as well as a couple of pictures.

Thanks for sharing in our fun!

Cactus Jack Cristo
Ingredients:
Hamburger patty
Cornmeal jalapeño roll
Prickly Pear cactus jelly (can be found at AZ specialty shops or the airport or you can make some like we did — someone in your neighborhood is bound to have a prickly pear cactus if you don’t)
Jalapeños (julienned, battered and deep fried)
Pepper-jack cheese
Cilantro coleslaw (basically a good coleslaw with cilantro added)
To build:
The bun should be battered and fried (like a Monte Cristo). Spread jelly on both sides of the bun (Red Robin calls this coast-to-coast). Melt cheese on burger. Add fried jalapeños on top and cilantro coleslaw on the bottom.
Here’s a picture of Courtney’s burger when we built it at home:
