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.
