Keto Recipe: Lamb Burgers with Tzatziki Sauce

Keto Burgers... but different! As a red-blooded American man, I sure do enjoy me a good beef burger. No bun? No problem! I do have to admit, though, they can sit a little heavy, and they certainly aren't very refreshing. Here's a different take on burgers that hit the spot and leave you feeling light!

Topping with pickled red onion and cucumber highly recommended!

Burger Ingredients

• 1 lb ground lamb
• 1 large cage free organic egg
• 1/2 cup chopped red onion
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• dash dried dill weed
• 2 tb freshly chopped parsley
• dash black pepper
• 1/2 tsp @redmondrealsalt

Tzatziki Sauce Ingredients

• 1/2 cup 2% plain greek yogurt (we love Fage)
• 1 small cucumber grated and squeezed so that only the flesh remains.
• 1 tsp dried dill weed
• 1/2 tsp dried garlic powder
• Dash salt
• Dash pepper
• Squirt of lemon juice

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 and prepare a baking sheet with non-stick foil.
2. Combine all burger ingredients by hand in a mixing bowl until well incorporated.
3. Form into 4 patties and place on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 min, flipping the burgers after 10 min.
4. While burgers are cooking, combine sauce ingredients. 
5. Top burgers with a spoonful of the sauce and pair with your favorite greek salad or greek roasted veggies.
