Adding feta and spinach slaw puts a special savory spin on this burger variation.

Ingredients

  • 3 Tbs quick-cooking rolled oats
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 lb ground lamb
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 2 Tbs red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon-style mustard
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh spinach, leaves and stems removed, chopped
  • 4 English muffins, split and lightly toasted

Directions

  • In a bowl, combine oats, egg white, pepper and salt. Add lamb; mix well. Form into eight 1/4-inch patties. In a small bowl, toss together the feta cheese and green onion. Place one-fourth of the cheese mixture on each of four patties. Top with remaining four patties and seal edges to hold filling inside.
  • In bowl, combine vinegar, mustard and sugar; mix well. Pour over chopped spinach; toss to mix. Set aside.
  • Grill burger over medium-hot coals for 5 to 6 minutes per side until no longer pink inside. Place each burger on a muffin half; top with spinach mixture and other half of the muffin.
