Notes

NOTE: Nutritional info is for 1 burger with bun and 2 tbsp special sauce; this does not include toppings or cheese. Without special sauce, burger is 317 calories. Cheese will add 110 calories, while vegetable/pickle toppings will add minimal calories.
Try out different topping ideas like tzatziki sauce, grilled veggies, jalapenos or salsa.
Make sure not to overwork the patties so they don’t fall apart.
Store the leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat on the grill, in the oven or on the stovetop.
Freeze these burgers raw or cooked for up to 3 months, then cook or reheat from frozen.
