Zucchini Burger Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by erinstargirl

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 medium organic zucchini, ends removed {peel if you prefer, you'll notice I don't} and grated
1 lb grass-fed and -finished ground beef {your protein should be at room temperature, don't pull straight out of the fridge and cook}
1 tsp sea salt of choice

Steps:

In a medium bowl, gently mix together the zucchini and beef. Do not overwork or the burgers may be tough. Divide your burger mixture into quarters {eighths if making sliders}. Form each section into patties about one-inch thick. Make an indentation in the top center each patty. Heat a cast iron grill pan over medium-high heat with your fat of choice. Season each patty with salt before placing in the hot pan and let cook for 3-4 minutes. Flip and finish cooking to your liking. Grass-fed beef is naturally leaner and cooks quicker. Serve immediately.
