A different twist on the traditional hamburger. I like any recipe that squeezes in more green vegetables.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tablespoons salsa
1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely diced
1 zucchini, finely diced
1 1/4 lbs ground chuck or 1 1/4 lbs ground turkey
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4 (7 inch) pita breads, warmed
Directions:
1. Make sauce: combine all ingredients in a small bowl.
2. Heat oil in nonstick skillet; add onion, half the zucchini and cook 3-4 minutes, until tender.
3. Cool.
4. Toss beef with zucchini mixture, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.
5. Shape into four 1/2 thick patties.
6. Heat grill pan.
7. Grill patties 5-6 minutes per side until an instant-read thermometer inserted into side of burger registers 160 degrees (165 degrees for turkey).
8. Place burgers, sauce, and remaining zucchini inside pita.
