AWESOME BURGERS
With the warm weather coming I was searching for a different burger recipe. I first thought this sounded really odd with rolled oats in the ingredients but combining it with milk makes for a moist pattie with a great texture. I made a few small changes to a recipe I found in the cookbook All Fired Up

AWESOME TURKEY BURGERS
A great recipe from the Splendid Table. Not your typical dry, flavorless turkey burger. These are moist and full of flavor! Recipe doubles easily and they are great on the grill! We like to serve them with sweet potato fries.

Steps:
- Put 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet and heat over high. Add onions and tomatoes with generous sprinkles of salt and pepper. Sauté over high, stirring frequently, until onions begin to brown.
- Add garlic and cook until onions are wilted and soft. Remove from heat. Set aside half the onion mixture for topping burgers.
- Blend ground turkey with remaining onion mixture, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Shape into 2 balls.
- Make a deep hole with your thumb and insert half of the cheese into each ball. Pinch hole closed and flatten ball into 3/4- to 1-inch thick patties with no sign of cheese on the outside. Patties will be very soft and sticky.
- Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium high. Sear burgers about 30 seconds on each side until browned.
- Lower heat to medium-low and cook about 5 minutes per side, or until there is no pink at center of burger and an instant-read thermometer measures at least 150 degrees
- These burgers can also be grilled if you prefer.
- Serve hot on buns, topping with reserved onions and your favorite condiments.

VEGETARIAN ESSENTIALS: SUPER AWESOME BURGERS
As a caterer you meet all kinds of people with all kinds of tastes. One of those that can be difficult in a mixed situation are vegetarians. I have worked on meatless recipes for years. Some are hits and some are misses. This one is a total hit. So-much-so, that I keep a bunch frozen in the walk-in, and take one out now-and-then,...

Steps:
- 1. PREP/PREPARE
- 2. You will need a blender, or food processor fitted with an S-Blade to make this recipe.
- 3. The beans are an important element in the flavor of these burgers. I make my own (I will share the recipe in a bit); however, when it comes to canned beans, some of my absolute favorite ones are Bush's Baked Beans. Those folks know how to make 'em tasty. If you want to make your own, check out my best... https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/side/other-side-dish/cooking-under-pressure-brilliant-baked-beans.html?r=1
- 4. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
- 5. Cook the rice according to package directions, and then allow to cool.
- 6. Add the beans to a large bowl, and crush with a fork. Do not turn them into mush... leave some bits.
- 7. Place the sunflower seeds into a blender/food processor, and blend until fine, but do not blend to the point that it becomes a paste. Trust me, it does not take long for that to happen.
- 8. Add the remaining ingredients, but not the rice, and use one-second pulses until everything is nicely combined.
- 9. Add the blended ingredients, along with the rice into the large bowl with the beans, and mix with wet hands until combined, then shape into burger patties.
- 10. If you are making sliders, you will probably get about 20; if you are doing full-size patties, you will probably get about 8.
- 11. You can stick these into a 370f (188c) oven until they begin to brown, about 12 - 14 minutes, or you could fry them up in a pan with a bit of oil.
- 12. PLATE/PRESENT
- 13. Mix the dressing together, if using, and spread it over the burger before serving. Enjoy.
- 14. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
~ CASSIES AWESOME ASIAN CHICKEN BURGERS ~

Steps:
- 1. Make sauce : Whisk all sauce ingredients until smooth. Cover & refrigerate until ready to use.
- 2. In a food processor, add chicken breast and pulse until chicken is ground. ( Or can buy already ground chicken. ) Place in a small bowl. Shred carrots, green onion and garlic in food processor. Add to chicken. Next, add the ginger, soy, sesame oil, ginger, vinegar and mix until well blended.
- 3. The chicken burgers can either be grilled or broiled. If grilling you will need a grill pan as it is a loose mixture. Spray the grill pan, divide meat mixture in half, shape patties once on the pan. Salt and pepper. Place on rack over medium heat on grill and cook for 6 minutes, then flip to other side and cook another 6 minutes or until juices run clear.
- 4. I broiled mine today. Spray broiler pan with non stick cooking spray and divide meat mixture in half and pat out meat mixture in the shape of a patty once on pan. Salt & pepper. Place rack in oven about 4 - 6 inches below heat. Cook for 6 - 8 minutes on one side and flip to the other and finish cooking until juices run clear.
- 5. Butter your bread or bun and toast either on grill or in broiler - I toasted mine right beside the patties. Spread sauce on bottom and top pieces of bread or bun. Add desired condiments. Enjoy! So good!
