Danish Burgers W/ Herb Caper Sauce and a Mod Salad image

These burgers are tasty, hearty, moist and very easy to make. The flavors are simply fabulous. The recipe comes from Rachael Ray. Tip: Put the cheese in the freezer while you prep everything - just 10 minutes in a deep freeze makes the dicing a lot easier.
