I ♥ Greek flavors.
Hummus, Tzaziki, feta cheese, Kalamata olives. I love them ALL.
Here’s a few examples in case you missed them…
Oregano Chicken with Pearl Couscous and Greek Salsa
Why not incorporate all of them into a burger?
I made a double decker, just to make sure I crammed all the good stuff in there. I guess you could also call it a Greek Big Mac.
Oh, and I added caramelized onions.
Here’s your printable-
