Notes

What can your kids do to help?
Once mushroom are done, then can help stir all the ingredients together and assist in assembling the burgers.  As usually, help measure out all ingredients, as well :)
Note:  Have extra mushrooms and don't want to waste them.  Add them to your omelette or cloud eggs tomorrow morning!
