Mushroom Beef Burgers

Step 1

Prep ingredients: chop the mushrooms and dice the onion. Both should be small pieces.

Step 2

Add a bit of cooking oil to a frying pan over medium high heat. Cook the onion and garlic until it turns translucent, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the mushrooms.

Step 4

Cook until they reduce in size and slightly crispen. About 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Add the cooked mushroom mixture, ground beef, dried sage, salt and pepper to a large bowl.

Step 6

Mix together evenly. Break apart the ground beef using the side of a spatula or wide spoon.

Step 7

Measure ½ cup of the ground beef mixture and form it into patties. I was able to make six burgers.

Step 8

Heat a frying pan with a bit of cooking oil over medium high heat. Add the burgers and cook 3-4 minutes on each side.

Step 9

Gently flip using a sturdy spatula - these burgers will break apart if you flip too fast.

Step 10

Once cooked, add to paper towel to absorb any excess moisture.

Step 11

Serve on burger buns with romaine lettuce, sliced tomatoes, sliced red onion, pickles and your favorite sauce. I used mayonnaise and ketchup. Enjoy!
