Have a little fun with it! When I buy Lean Ground Beef, I dump the meat into a mixing bowl and break out the cutting board and skillet.
1 pound lean ground beef or lamb or lean ground sirloin
half a small onion
2 oz goat cheese
2-4 oz of roasted red pepper
1 clove garlic
salt and pepper
-dice that onion up real small. dice that garlic clove up real small. heat up that skillet with a tsp of EVOO until you can splash a little bit of water in it and it spits at you. Now that the oil is really hot, toss your onion and garlic in there and carmelize them.
-toss the onions and garlic into the mixing bowl.
-cut up the roasted red pepper and toss in the mixing bowl.
-add crumbled goat cheese to mixing bowl.
-salt and pepper to your preference. maybe even some cayenne powder if you want some heat.
-(once the onions have cooled enough) dive your hands into that mixing bowl and make sure everything is good and mixed together!
-break into 4 equal parts and flatten out burgers!
I wrap up three in saran wrap and put in the freezer for another day. you should have a couple of weeks to eat and it thaws in an hour or two.
I use a George Forman grill since it is too wet here to bbq now and you don't need anything extra for this burger! It is soooo flavorful and pretty damn healthy too! I use a spelt bun with a little mustard and slivered onion.
