Main Dish Monday! Pesto Burgers

It’s Main Dish Monday!

This week’s Monday night family dinner recipe comes from Michelle.  This is her very own recipe for pesto burgers!    We eat these as if they were steak and include some tasty potatoes fried in your trusty iron skillet   – enjoy your time around the table with your family!

Chop the garlic & basil then add the butter!
Salt & pepper your burgers...

Heat your iron skillet to med/high, fry 3-4 mins each side then
add the pesto mixture while finishing up on low!
I used coconut oil to fry the potato wedges, and yes, they were a bit crispy!
It happens!

Delicious!!!!
Served with Cabernet Sauvignon 


Recipe:
I used 2 garlic cloves and just rough chopped them with a knife.  Then I cut up about 3 tablespoons of fresh basil (Mmmm!).  After that I just mashed in about 3 tablespoons of real butter.  I lightly salted and peppered the ground beef and fried them on medium/high heat.  Once the burgers were browned on each side, I put half of the garlic/basil/butter "pesto" on top of the burgers while they finished cooking.  (Burgers are done when the juice runs clear and no blood comes out when you gently push on the center.)

Shopping List:
Ground beef
Butter - salted
Fresh Basil
Garlic
Salt and pepper
