Ingredients
For the Kale and Mint Pesto:
- 4 cups tightly packed green kale leaves chopped
- 1 cup mint leaves
- ½ cup walnuts
- 3 cloves large garlic
- ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ¼ cup walnut oil
For the Lamb Burgers
- 1 pound ground lamb meat
- 1 tablespoon grapeseed or olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 3 hamburger buns
- 3 lices jack cheese
- Handful spinach or spring green mix
Instructions
To make the mint and kale pesto:
- Combine all of the ingredients for the pesto except for the oil in a food processor or blender. Pulse the blender/food processor to chop the ingredients.
- Leaving the food machine on a medium speed, slowly add the oil while the it is processing.
- Pour the pesto into a bowl or container and set aside.
To prepare the lamb burgers:
- Form three burger patties out of one pound of lamb meat.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet to medium and add the butter and oil and allow it to melt.
- Once the skillet has heated completely, place the three burger patties on it and allow them to cook 5 minutes.
- Flip the patties and cook an additional 3 minutes.
- Add the slices of cheese on top and cook until cheese is melted (you can place a cover over the skillet to help melt the cheese), or until meat is cooked to desired “done-ness”
- While the burgers are cooking, put your oven on the broil setting and put the buns in the oven cut-side up to allow them to toast. Keep an eye on them and remove them once they’re golden brown and crispy.
- Prepare your burgers by spreading kale mint pesto on top of the patty and add spring greens.
- Serve with sweet potato fries and diiiive in!!
