peachy_pie's Note:

Light and freshly flavoured burgers. These are great to keep in the freezer for dinners or hungry teenager snack time! Try serving these on fresh bread rolls with shredded carrot, lettuce, cucumber, satay sauce, sweet chilli sauce or wasabi mayonnaise and sprouts for a very healthy and delicious dinner.

We have picky eaters at our house who want plain old hamburgers. But I wanted to try something different, and everyone liked this very much! I used dry herbs instead of fresh, and when I couldn't find coriander in any form, I used Old Bay seasoning. This is a great change from the mundane.
