The Ultimate Smash Burger
The traditional Oklahoma Onion Smash Burger became famous along Route 66 during The Great Depression when meat was expensive, but onions were cheap.Because this burger is so straightforward and delicious, it remains as popular today as it was over 90 years ago.

Healthy Little Red Potato Salad to Die For
Light, creamy, healthy, and delicious. Fresh celery and celery seeds add crunch and flavor. The red skins on the potatoes add color and texture. Serve on a bed of mixed baby lettuces for any spring or summer dish or as a side to cold chicken or roast beef. Potato salad originated in Germany in the 16th century, where its recipe is vinegar-based and served warm. The American potato salad is usually mayonnaise-based and served cold.

I grew up in La Jolla, California. There was a liquor store by the beach named Dick’s Liquor.
