Citrusy...

Citrusy Burger... no photos! My dad and I were so engrossed with making everything we completely spaced taking photos. It was so good!

Ingredients:

1 cup of fresh lime juice

1/2 cup of honey

Salt

Pepper

1 pound 85% lean ground beef

1 large onion chopped

3 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped

1 Bell pepper chopped

1/2 chopped stevia leaves (optional)

1 tsp olive oil

2 avocados, halved, pitted, peeled, and sliced

Step 1:

Cook the lime juice, honey, 1 tsp of salt in a small saucepan set over medium heat until everything is completely dissolved. Allow it to cool.

Step 2:

Put the ground beef in a large ziplock back, and pour all but 1/4 cup lime juice over the beef. Put the bag in the fridge and let the beef marinate for at least an hour.

Step 3:

Drain the beef, then form 4 patties and season with salt and pepper. Cook the burgers as you normally would. We grilled ours.

Step 4:

While the burgers are cooking, mix the onion, tomatoes, pepper, and stevia leaves, if using, in a bowl with the olive oil and a dash of salt.

Step 5:

Build your burger: Bottom large piece of lettuce (opted for no bun), burger, a couple of avocado slices, a scoop of the vegetables on top, 1 tbsp of lime juice, then top bun and done.

We are enjoying the Arizona heat with this citrusy sweet burger!
