I had some trouble getting the burgers to stay together. I think I might try using a binder like egg or bread crumbs next time.

The burgers were a bit bland. I think I would add some more seasoning next time.

These burgers were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add some more moisture next time, maybe by adding some grated zucchini or carrot.

These burgers were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would use less chili powder next time.
