There’s a verse in Deuteronomy that says that man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the Lord (Deuteronomy 8:3)…but yesterday I lived by BOTH!
As I mentioned before, I made the Pioneer Woman’s Cinnamon Rolls for church yesterday. I had to have a tester though…you know, quality control!
The recipe seriously makes the most ENORMOUS amount of rolls! I had two 9×13 pans and one 8×8 pan completely packed in there!
So yeah, I might’ve ended up eating the equivalent of 5 rolls…oops. I have no excuse for myself on that one…I just couldn’t resist the buttery, crunchy-sugary, soft, doughy combination! If only everyone at church had eaten them all…that’s right, I just blamed it on everyone else!
Lunch/dinner was at our pastor’s house. Nate was in charge of bacon. We like bacon.
And this is where I saw the difference between men and women. Cast your eyes on the WomanBurger, complete with mustard, lettuce, fresh tomato, and red onion, with a side of salad and carrot sticks. Heavenly, right?
That monstrosity is what happens when you take 5 over-zealous men who love meat, bacon, bread, and daring one another to do crazy things. Like make (and eat) their weight in burgers. Time for everyone to meet our pastor, Michael. See Michael smile:
See Michael’s face contort to fit the burger in.
See Michael’s anaconda jaw go on lock down with the ManBurger:
Now I’m hungry. I think that’s the main difference between the WomanBurger and the ManBurger…
I know that this post is KIND OF lacking in content, and honestly I’m totally aware of that. It’s been an emotional roller coaster of a weekend, and when I was trying to think of things to say, it all ended up being things that I really can’t discuss on here. Anyway, I just wanted to let y’all know that and ask your forgiveness! I should be back to my normal self soon 🙂
SO…let’s talk burger toppings! First of all, WomanBurger or ManBurger? And what toppings do you want on there?! I’m a ManBurger fan myself (TWSS), and I always love cheese (duh), onions, pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, mustard, bbq sauce…basically the works, minus mayo!
Anne @ Food Loving Polar Bear says
I must say.. MANBURGER!!! what a burger, wow! I’d love to have one too 😀
Becky says
That is the most beautiful burger I’ve ever seen!
And your cinnamon rolls look amazing. I took my first try at cinnamon rolls a few weeks ago. I’ll have to try Pioneer Woman’s version.
Jen says
I like a veggie burger, loaded up man style! Onions, pickles, avocado, tomato…YUMM!!!
I saw you mentioned there’s a lot of stuff going on that you can’t mention here, I hope everything is ok!!!

HAHAHAH love the manburger! HILARIOUS!! I LOVE ostrich burgers! with avocado and salsa! YUM
Maria says
I only do veggie burgers, but I love lettuce, tomato, spicy mustard, and sprouts…oh red onion too!
Jennifer says
Sheesh, the only way I could handle a manburger is if it were cut in half. Then I would probably eat half of that haha. Wow girl, your cinnamon buns look crazy good. Don’t feel bad about eating 5, because I would have been right there with ya 🙂
Mary says
Not sure the difference between the man or woman burger…just about all burgers are good.
I like mine with lettuce, mustard, sauteed onions, bacon and bar-b-que sauce…yummy!
lpskins says
No ketchup? That’s a crime my friend.
Heather says
i know, i know…i do love ketchup on mine too!
Emily says
Let it be known that I made your pineapple salsa today and my world has been rocked! It is SO good! And I am so excited that it made so much…I already put some in my freezer for later.
My coworkers are going to be lucky if this salsa actually makes it to our potluck tomorrow night. 🙂 Thanks for the awesome recipe!
Also, burgers are one of the main reasons I will never turn into a full vegetarian. There is just too much delicious grass-fed beef out there that needs to be grilled up and put on a bun! That Manburger has my mouth watering. 🙂
Heather says
woohoo!!! i’m so glad you liked it! it does make a ton, right? but the thing is i could probably eat at least half of it in one sitting if i’m not careful…
Heather @ Get Healthy with Heather says
I’m a womanburger topped with tomato, lettuce and smashed avocado… plus maybe some extra crispy bacon or cheese?!
Megan says
Manburger. Hands down. It’s so not healthy, but so much tastier than a burger with just the bare minimal on it.
marci says
I want to make the rolls, I was tryingt o read her recipe but its says a BAG of powederd sugar, well what size 🙂 a 16oz or a 32 oz bag ? which dis you use?
Heather says
In her cookbook it says a 2-lb bag of sugar, so I believe that makes it the 32-oz bag 🙂
lisasfoods says
Womanburger, all the way. I haven’t had red meat in over twelve years, so no hamburgers for me! But veggie burgers all the way, with all kinds of toppings – grilled onions and mushrooms, tomato, lettuce, ketchup, pickles.
Dawn Hutchins says
Hi! I just found your blog from your comment on “Honoring my Health”. Your comment is exactly how I feel as well!
Great blog and that is quite a burger. Yum!!
dorrybird says
Those cinnamon rolls should be ILLEGAL! They look so incredibly yummy I will have dreams about them. I love lots of toppings on a burger – ketchup/mustard mix, pickles, lettuce, tomato, avocado, maybe grilled onions, too! And then I’ll dip it in BBQ sauce. Mmmm.
Sarah @ The Smart Kitchen says
I kind of want to eat that MANBURGER….or perhaps a Womanburger with bacon?
Or maybe just skip the burger altogether and just eat some bacon dipped in BBQ sauce…
Estela @ Weekly Bite says
Knowing me, I’d take two bites of the man burger, and then eat my woman burger 🙂
Oh, and those cinnamon rolls look insane!!
Jessica @ Dairy Free Betty says
I think the women burger looks amazing!!!!
I hope all your stuff works out ok. 🙂
spabettie says
oh, and I meant to say…
hope you are feeling better asap 🙂
spabettie says
every time I see those Pioneer Woman rolls I want to make them… GAAH they sound good…
I am between burgers… I want it ALL on there! The messier the better – I love cheeses, sauces, pickles, all kinds of crazy, but I also love a BUNCH of crispy iceberg lettuce…
okay, now I AM hungry!! 🙂
Anna says
Veggie burger topped with sauteed mushrooms and onions = heaven.
Hope everything’s okay, girl!
Lindsay says
I prefer a Womanburger generally, but every so often, you gotta give into those manly urges. Lol.
Becki @ HikeBikeEat says
If there’s guacamole on top, or stuffed inside, or coating the tortilla chips the burger came with, I’m happy!
Heather C says
ha, definitely on board for the Woman-burger! veggie style for this chick 😉 I LOVE pepperjack cheese, and/or avocado, and/or some crunch (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle). 🙂
Brittany (A Healthy Slice of Life) says
WOMANburger! … most of the time 😉 But every once in a while, an old fashioned manburger (meat, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, ketchup and mustard) just hits the spot!
Kelly says
Sometimes I want a MANBURGER and other times I just want a veggie burger! I swing both ways! haha! (sorry I could resist)
Salah says
I’m all about the womanburger….with a veggie pattie instead of meat hahaha
Jessica @ How Sweet says
Um…MANBURGER for me all the way!! If womanburgers consistent of veggies, I’d rather be a man.
