Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, zucchini, carrot, mushrooms, Parmesan cheese, onion, garlic, oregano, and salt.
- Form the mixture into 4 full patties or 8 kid-size patties. You can choose to grill the patties or freeze them by placing them in an airtight container with parchment between each patty so they don’t stick together.
- In a grill pan over medium-high heat, cook the burgers a few at a time, leaving some space in between, until the top of the patty starts to darken in color. Flip and cook for a few minutes longer. Do not press on the patty while it’s cooking or the juices will run out. You can also grill on a grill over medium heat.
- Spread 1 tablespoon mayonnaise on each bun.
- Assemble the burgers in this order: bun, mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, burger, avocado, bun. Enjoy!
