INGREDIENTS
- 1 large Young Green Onions
- 1 oz Baby Spinach
- 1/4 oz Dill
- 1 Italian Tomatoes
- 1 fruit (2-1/8" dia) Lemon
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 8 ounce Ground Beef (85% Lean / 15% Fat)
- 1 oz Feta Cheese
- 1/4 tsp Oregano
- 4 oz Butterhead Lettuce (Includes Boston and Bibb Types)
- 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
DIRECTIONS
- Finely chop the green onion and place in a
large bowl. Roughly chop the baby spinach
and add to the bowl with the green onion. Remove enough dill leaves from their stems
to yield 1 teaspoon of roughly chopped dill
and add to the bowl.
- Slice the tomato into ¼-inch sliced
rounds; set aside. Zest the lemon into a small bowl. Juice the
lemon into the same bowl, discarding any
seeds; set aside. Cut the zucchini into ¼-diced pieces; set
aside.
- Pat dry the ground beef with paper towels
and add to the bowl with the spinach
mixture. Add the crumbled feta cheese,
¼ teaspoon each of salt and pepper and the
dried oregano. Mix until all ingredients are
well combined.
- Form the ground beef mixture into two
patties. Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high
heat and when hot, add the burger patties
and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side until
cooked through.
- While the burgers are cooking, heat
2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium sauté
pan over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and sauté for
1 to 2 minutes to soften and get slightly
browned. Season with the lemon zest and juice and
¼ teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Stir to
combine.
- Place the burgers between two slices
of bibb lettuce and top with the sliced
tomatoes. Place a burger on each plate and arrange
the sautéed zucchini next to the burgers.
Enjoy!
