A Meal with Veal

What you'll need:
- Lean ground veal , 1 lb

- 1/3 C bread crumbs
- Spices: salt, pepper, garlic, paprika, seasoned salt
- Olive oil
- Couscous 
- Frozen broccoli in a SteamFresh bag (or any other veggie)

- Any salad dressing (I used an Asian-styled one)


Vegetables:
Before: Take out the frozen bag of broccoli and place it straight into your microwave for 4-6 minutes. 
During: Let the bag stand after microwaving for ~5 minutes, empty it into a bowl then toss on 1-2 TB of salad dressing

Protein:
Before: Mix the ground veal with the egg and breadcrumbs along with your favorite meat spices (salt, pepper, season salt, paprika, garlic) . Form the meat into patties and then wash your hands!
During: Heat up a skillet with a TB of olive oil and place the patties on the skillet to cook until no pink is seen in the middle. The patties will still taste wonderful even if it looks like a Pac Man :). Once they are cooked, place the patties on plate with paper towel . Get that pan soaking in soapy water while you dine!

Carbohydrate:
Before: Put the raw couscous in a bowl/pot and boil up some water. 
During: Combine the water and couscous and spice packet if it comes with it (if not, just add some salt, pepper, and garlic powder). Cover the pot/bowl for 5-7 minutes then fluff with a fork.

AFTER!
