These burgers were a bit too moist for my liking. I think I would have preferred them if they had been grilled for a little longer.

I'm not a huge fan of zucchini, but these burgers were actually really good. The zucchini was grated so finely that it was barely noticeable.

These burgers were a bit bland for my taste. I think they could have used more seasoning.
