Rosemary Sage Burgers with Apple Slaw & Chive "Mayo"


Rosemary Sage Burgers with Apple Slaw & Chive "Mayo"

Makes 4 burgers.

A fresh, new change from the standard burger.  I loved the burst of tart flavor from the apple slices, and the chive mayo was great!
Slightly adapted from: Self magazine

Burgers:
1/2 pound extra-lean ground beef
1/2 pound lean ground pork
2-3 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
2-3 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 hamburger buns
1 cup baby spinach leaves

Chive "mayo:"
1/2 cup non-fat sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 dashes each salt and pepper

Apple slaw:
3 green apples, peeled, cored and grated
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preheat grill to medium high. Combine beef, pork, rosemary, sage, and salt in a medium-sized bowl; form into 4 patties. Grill patties 4 minutes on each side or until juices run clear.
In a small bowl, combine mayo ingredients.


In a medium-sized bowl, combine slaw ingredients.
Toast the buns, if desired, and spread each top with mayo. Place burger on bun and top with slaw and several spinach leaves.
