Lamburgers with Feta Cheese

Tina — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 03:55:17 +0000

That’s not a typo! These are burgers made out of ground lamb, so they’re called lamburgers. They make a delicious alternative to having a gyro or a plain ol’ beef burger.

Give them a Greek twist with some feta cheese, too.

Ingredients:

4 large unpeeled garlic cloves
1 1/4 pounds ground lamb
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 large cucumber, peeled, grated and squeezed very dry in a clean towel
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon minced fresh mint leaves
1 teaspoon red or rice wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
4 large, thin tomato slices
4 large, thin tomato slices
4 small (4 inch) pita breads

Directions:

Set 4 whole garlic cloves in a small skillet over medium-high heat and toast for 5 minutes. Cool until you can hold, then peel, mince and set aside.
Break up lamb in a medium bowl. Add roasted garlic, feta, oregano, salt and pepper over meat and stir until combined.
Make in to four patties and refrigerate.
Mix cucumber, sour cream, mint, vinegar, 1 minced clove of garlic, and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl.
Refrigerate sauce until ready to serve.

Cook:

Cook, turning only once, until done, about 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium to medium-well burgers.
Grill pitas until warm and split crosswise.
Spread a couple of tablespoons of sauce over 4 pita halves.
Top each with an onion slice, a tomato slice and a burger. Spread a portion of the remaining sauce over each burger and cover with pitas.

Delicious Vegetarian Burger Recipe

Tina — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 03:49:11 +0000

I know vegetarian and burger don’t really belong together, but here it actually works. This recipe mixes beans and vegetables to create a patty that tastes awfully good.

It’s also a great way to sneak in some fiber for your kids (and spouse) who don’t ea their vegetables very well.

Ingredients:

1 (16 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 green bell pepper chopped into 2 inch pieces
1/2 onion, chunked
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 egg
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon Thai chili sauce or hot sauce
1/2 cup bread crumbs

Directions:

In a medium bowl, mash black beans with a fork until thick and pasty.
Finely chop bell pepper, onion, and garlic and stir into the bean mixture.
In a small bowl, stir together egg, chili powder, cumin, and chili sauce.
Combine the two bowls and mix in bread crumbs until the mixture is sticky and holds together.
Make in to four patties.

Cook:

If grilling, place patties on greased foil cook for 8 minutes per side.
If baking, place on a greased baking sheet and flip after 10 minutes.

The vegetarian bean burger is a tasty alternative to the boring old burger. This version is healthier, too! Enjoy with a wheat bun, some lettuce and tomato slices and you have a great burger!

When cool, mix in venison, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, salt, pepper, and egg until evenly combined.
Refrigerate for 20 minutes. Shape into 6 patties and grill to desired wellness.

The venison burgers go great on wheat or deli buns with a touch of mayo, some lettuce, tomato, onion and mustard.

A Juicy Ranch Burger

Tina — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 02:43:15 +0000

There is nothing better than biting in to a cooked to perfection burger and having a little bit of juice run out. You know this is going to be one tasty burger!

How do you get a burger to retain a lot of juice but not be raw? Easy…with one secret ingredient.

Actually, it’s probably more than one ingredient, but we won’t get too technical. Here’s the recipe for creating juicy ranch burgers at your own grill.

Ingredients:

1 pound ground beef
1 packet of ranch powdered dressing mix

Method:

Mix the seasoning packet in to the hamburger meat with a spoon or your hands until thoroughly combined.
Shape in to desired size of patties and flip on the grill. Cook to desired state and remove from the grill.
On your bun, use lettuce, tomato slices and a dab of mixed salad dressing if desired. Eat and enjoy.

The secret? The seasoning is made to hold the liquid (when made with milk) to be dressing consistency. The juice from the meat has the same effect, meaning the juice stays inside with the ranch seasoning.

These burgers are delicious and easy!

Healthful Cheeseburger Recipe

Sally — Sat, 30 May 2009 07:47:30 +0000

If you’re a frequent visitor here, you know we’re always on a quest – not for the meaning of life (What am I, gay?) but for cheeseburger goodness of all kinds. From the most caloric to the most expensive, we bring you cheeseburger news of all lengths, from all locations, and with all flavors.

Enter this recipe for healthy cheeseburger.

You see, I’ve always known I needed to eat healthier but just couldn’t bring myself to give my cheeseburger up. It didn’t help that this recession happened, and freelance jobs became harder to come by. As the market snuffed one well-paying gig after the next, I found myself dicing my grocery bill by eating cheap and anything fastfood.

And so it was that this unfortunate situation came about – for every 80 points that the Dow drops, I gain a point in cholesterol count. Fortunately, I discovered how to make this healthful cheeseburger (not a myth, I swear), and I’m sharing it with you just in case you find yourself needing to do a gut-check.

Ingredients:

1 pound of white turkey meat (ground)
1 tablespoon of Spike seasoning
2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup of bread crumbs
1/2 cup of scallions
1/2 cup of soy sauce
4 slices of cheese (either low-fat or non-fat)
1/2 cup of light mayonnaise
3 tablespoons of ketchup
1 tablespoon of relish

Method:

Mix the following in a large bowl: turkey meat, Worcestershire sauce, bread crumbs, scallions, and spike seasoning.
Form 4 patties out of the mixture.
Grease a large skillet and heat until hot.
Add patties and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
Flip the patties over before adding soy sauce.
Cover the pan. Let it simmer until the patties are cooked throughout.
Remove the lid. Then, place a slice of cheese on each patty, and allow it to melt.
Combine the mayo with the relish and the ketchup.
Place them, and your patties, on oven-steamed buns. Serve with the condiment of your choice.

See? It’s easy, healthy, cheeesy, and yum.

Pecan Burgers

admin — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 19:12:10 +0000

Like your burgers with a little nutty crunch? These Pecan Burgers should do the trick.

Ingredients:

1 pound of hamburger meat
5 tablespoons of chopped pecans
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped bell peppers
2 tablespoons of fresh chopped parsley
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 hamburger rolls
Oil and butter for cooking

Method:

To get the most flavor into our Pecan Burgers we are going to roast the pecans on the stove first, we recommend buying whole pecans and chopping them yourself.
Heat a heavy bottomed skillet over a high heat, throw in the chopped pecans and cook for 2-3 minutes. You should see a change in color slightly as the pecans roast and begin to release some of their natural oils. Remove and set aside.
Now combine the hamburger meat, chopped onions and bell pepper, parsley and seasoning in a large bowl and mix well, then mix in the roasted pecans.
Shape the mixture into 4 patties with your hands and fry in a little oil for 4-5 minutes each side making sure the meat is fully cooked. These Pecan Burgers are perfect for the barbeque because those pecans roast up even better.

Pecan Burgers tip: If you really want to go gourmet then try throwing in a couple of teaspoons of Pecan Oil to the meat mixture.

These burgers are great to serve to your guests to see if they can guess the mysterious ingredient.
