I made this simple roasted lamb breast when I recently saw this affordable cut at the store and decided to give it a go. The result was a fall-off-the-bone, melt-in-your-mouth, tender, juicy, and flavorful meal. I like to serve a chimichurri over the top for an acidic punch but it is not necessary.

Juiciest Hamburgers Ever
No more dry, lackluster hamburgers. These are juicy, and spices can be easily added or changed to suit anyone's taste. If you find the meat mixture too mushy, just add more bread crumbs until it forms patties that hold their shape.
Egg in a Hole
Egg in the hole makes a delicious breakfast! A runny yolk egg cooked in the center of a piece of toast and eaten with a fork is a great way to enjoy an egg in a slightly different way. My kids feel fancy when eating these.
