I've started experimenting with dry mixes adding them to hamburger to perk up the flavor, this is the latest! We felt like we were eating at a very upscale bistro cafe! Hope you try them before the summer is over, they are to die for! Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
1 (1/2 ounce) package dry pesto sauce mix
1 cup shredded provolone cheese or 1 cup mozzarella cheese, and more if desired
3 kaiser rolls
3 slices tomatoes
3 lettuce leaves
3 slices red onions
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon prepared basil pesto (in the jar)
Directions:
1. Mix dry pesto mix into hamburger well.
2. Shape into 6 THIN patties, (they will be large).
3. (Make sure edges are nice, not cracked).
4. Top 3 patties with the provolone cheese evenly, in the center.
5. Top each with the remaining patties and seal edges well.
6. In very small bowl, mix mayo and jarred pesto sauce for spreading later.
7. Grill burgers, approximately 12-13 minutes total, turning once, or til burgers are done, over medium-high grill.
8. When burgers are just about done, grill buns lightly.
