Greek-Style Spinach Feta Burger

Ingredients

• Lettuce leaves (4)
• Tomato (1, sliced)
• Red onion (1, thinly sliced)
• Hamburger buns (4, toasted)
• Salt (1/2 teaspoon, or to taste)
• Black pepper (1/2 teaspoon, or to taste)
• Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
• Feta cheese (1/2 cup, crumbled)
• Spinach (1 cup, finely chopped)
• Ground beef (1 pound)

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, finely chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated.
2. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape each into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
3. Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Once hot, cook the patties for about 5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. (Tip: For a medium-rare burger, cook to an internal temperature of 145°F. For medium, cook to 160°F.)
4. While the patties are cooking, toast the hamburger buns.
5. To assemble the burgers, place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Top with a cooked patty, followed by tomato and onion slices. Cover with the top half of the bun.
6. Serve your Greek-Style Spinach Feta Burgers immediately with a side of Greek salad or seasoned fries for a complete Mediterranean meal experience.
