WHITE BEAN BURGERS WITH SPINACH

This recipe came from Better Homes and Gardens and DH and I liked it very much. The burgers had great flavor and consistency.

MUSHROOM BURGERS WITH ALMONDS AND SPINACH



Mushroom Burgers With Almonds and Spinach image

These delicious vegetarian patties have a great texture because of the almonds and bulgur. Like other vegetarian patties, they can be a little tricky to turn when you brown them. If they break apart, just patch them together.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, weekday, burgers, main course

Time 3h

Yield 4 to 6 patties, depending on the size

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup fine bulgur
1/2 cup roasted almonds
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 pound fresh mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
2 large garlic cloves, green shoots removed, minced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons dry white wine (optional)
1 6-ounce bag baby spinach, rinsed, or a 12-ounce bunch of spinach, stemmed and washed
1 egg, beaten (optional)
Whole grain buns and condiments of your choice

Steps:

  • Place the bulgur in a bowl with a little salt if desired. Cover with ½ cup hot water and leave for 20 to 25 minutes, until most of the water has been absorbed and the bulgur is soft. Drain through a strainer and squeeze out the water.
  • Meanwhile, in a food processor fitted with the steel blade, grind the almonds coarsely.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add the mushrooms. When they begin to soften and sweat, turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes, until the mushrooms have softened. Add the garlic, thyme, salt, pepper and white wine, and continue to cook, stirring, until there is no more liquid in the pan, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, transfer to the food processor and process until very finely chopped.
  • Return the pan to the heat and add the spinach, a handful at a time. Cook just until it wilts and remove from the heat. Transfer to a strainer and, with the back of a spoon, press out excess water. Add spinach to the food processor and process with the mushrooms and almonds until the ingredients are well blended. Scrape the mixture into a bowl, stir in the bulgur and egg (if using), and season to taste with salt and pepper. Form into patties. If there is time, cover and chill for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a large, heavy skillet or on a griddle over medium heat, and brown the patties for 3 minutes on each side, being very careful when you turn them over. Don't worry if they fall apart; just patch them together. An offset spatula works well for turning them, and when you remove the patties from the pan, it helps if you place the bottom bun over the patty, slide the spatula underneath the patty and, with your hand on the bun, flip it over. Serve with the condiments of your choice.

Bacon Bit Burgers with Smoked Gouda and Steak House Smothered Onions and Baby Spinach Salad image

Categories     Salad     Sauce     Onion     Side     Gouda     Steak     Bacon     Spinach

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 smoky bacon slices, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
6 tablespoons EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil) plus more for drizzling
2 yellow onions, 1/4 finely chopped, 1 3/4 thinly sliced
1 1/2 pounds ground sirloin
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, eyeball it
1 teaspoon hot sauce, eyeball it
1 heaping tablespoon grill seasoning, such as McCormick's Montreal Steak Seasoning (a rounded palmful)
4 crusty Kaiser rolls, poppy seed or plain, split
4 slices smoked Gouda
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon steak sauce, such as A-1 or Lea and Perrins
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 sack washed baby spinach leaves
Salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler and place a medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat.
  • Add the bacon and a drizzle of EVOO to the hot skillet and cook until crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and drain off all but 1 tablespoon or so of the fat from the skillet. Return the pan to medium low heat and add the finely chopped onions to sweat out in the remaining fat, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Preheat a second medium nonstick skillet with 2 tablespoons of the EVOO 2 times around the pan, over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add all the thinly sliced onions and top them with a plate that can fit inside the skillet. Top the plate with a heavy can and smother the onions for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Lift the plate with tongs; it'll be hot!
  • Place the beef in a bowl and top with the Worcestershire, hot sauce, and grill seasoning.
  • Remove the chopped onions to the plate with the bacon to cool. Turn off the heat and reserve the pan. Once the onions are cool, add them and the bacon to the ground sirloin and combine well. Score the meat into 4 even sections and form 4 large patties. Add 1 tablespoon of EVOO to the skillet and reheat it over medium high heat. Add the burgers and cook for 4 minutes on each side for medium rare, minutes on each side for medium well.
  • Toast the split rolls under the hot broiler until golden. Place the burgers on the bun bottoms and top with the smoked Gouda. Remove the bun tops from the broiler pan. Return the burgers to the broiler just to melt the cheese, about 30 seconds.
  • Stir 1/4 cup of the steak sauce into the smothered onions. Top the burgers with the onions and set the bun tops in place.
  • Place the remaining tablespoon of steak sauce in a small salad bowl. Add about 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar and whisk in about 3 tablespoons of EVOO. Toss with the spinach, season with salt and pepper, and serve alongside the burgers.

SPINACH AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO BURGERS W/ FETA CHEESE



Spinach and Sun-dried Tomato Burgers w/ Feta Cheese image

I'm on a special diet and only can eat certain proteins. This is a great burger for any one on a diet! Very simple and even the kids will love it.

Provided by Christy Palmer

Categories     Burgers

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb ground chicken breast
1 c chopped spinach, fresh
1 c chopped sun-dried tomatoe, not in oil
1 c cheese (optional) i used feta
1 Tbsp chicken seasoning of your choice

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients in one bowl and make into 1 to 1 1/2 inch thick patties. Grill until no longer pink in the middle. Serve with all your favorite fixings!

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and is more nutritious than frozen spinach. If you're using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it thoroughly before using.
  • Squeeze out the excess moisture: After thawing frozen spinach, squeeze out as much of the excess moisture as possible. This will help to prevent the burgers from becoming too soggy.
  • Use a variety of seasonings: Spinach burgers can be bland, so it's important to use a variety of seasonings to add flavor. Some good options include garlic, onion, paprika, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Don't overcook the burgers: Spinach burgers are best when they're cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked burgers will be dry and tough.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Spinach burgers can be served with a variety of sides, such as sweet potato fries, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
