Notas

Tip : For burgers, meatloaf, and meatball recipes, stick with 90% lean ground beef. You need some fat to keep these babies moist!

I like getting creative with my burgers. some days I feel like Mexican flavors, so I'll top them with avocado and salsa, while other days. I make these Mediterranean-style bad boys with olives and feta cheese, and top them with my Tahini Yogurt Sauce (page 186)
