Gotee Grillin’

It's summer and despite the heat it's grillin' time at Gotee. Actually any day in the year that's half-decent out is reason enough to grill. Plus it helps me stay on a budget to grill out at work for lunch. And on top of that I'm always trying to find healthier options as well. Last summer it was Jennie-O frozen turkey burgers but I needed to find some newer things. Here are some items from Trader Joe's that have been easy to grill and great to eat.

Grilled Chicken Burger Patties: On the box they only mention the microwave or skillet but they have been working just great on the grill. There's some great seasoning already added and throw on a slice of smoked gouda cheese and these have been very tasty. Plus a box of 4 is only $3.99.

Smoked Apple Chardonnay Chicken Sausage: Started grillin' these last summer. Chunks of apple in the sausage give it a light taste. A lot of flavor too. And the calories are a lot better for you than a Johnsonville braut.

Premium Salmon Patties: Only 80 calories each.  Add some Old Bays during grillin' and these are the perfect light sandwich for lunch.

Free Range Chicken Tenders: Enough said.

Fruit Frenzy Bar: Not for the grill obviously but perfect afterwards and especially on a hot summer day.

UPDATE 7/7/10 - Mango Chicken Sausage: AMAZING. The perfect amount of sweet.

Tuesday Tune: Something Good Coming by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

I can't express enough how excited I am for the new Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers album "MOJO" to be released next week. But if you follow me on Twitter then you might have an idea of how excited I am. It's artists and albums like this that make me feel like a teenager again as I anticipate its release and eat up everything that is released in advance to promote it. It's artists and albums like this that remove me from my job in the music industry but also help fuel the passion for my job in the music industry. This might be an early and bold statement but "Something Good Coming" might just be my song of the year. I love "I Should Have Known It" but I really connect with the lyrics and melody to this song. And if you haven't seen the MOJO documentary directed by Sam Jones then please do below.

In case you don't know who Sam Jones is, he is the guy who directed the Wilco documentary "I Am Trying To Break Your Heart" and has numerous magazine covers to his resume including many kick ass covers for Rolling Stone.
