Greek-inspired burgers are seasoned with olive tapenade and served with feta cheese, fresh spinach, and crisp-tender zucchini slices on whole-grain buns. Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef (95% lean) |
1/4 cup low-fat or regular plain greek-style yogurt |
1/2 cup olive tapenade, divided |
1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced |
1 small zucchini, thinly sliced |
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese |
4 whole-grain hamburger buns, split, toasted |
fresh spinach leaves |
Directions:
1. Combine yogurt and 1/4 cup tapenade in small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. 2. Combine ground beef and remaining 1/4 cup tapenade in large bowl, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Lightly shape into four 1/2-inch thick patties. 3. Heat grill pan over medium heat until hot. Place patties in pan; cook 10 to 12 minutes until instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into center registers 160 degrees F, turning occasionally. Season with pepper, as desired.
