  1. This was so delicious and so easy! Thanks for posting it. Like the other reviewer, I was surprised at how much flavor these burgers have. According to my calculations they were 5 points plus each. Not a big deal because they are so filling. And 2 of those points are from the pita bread. When first out of the oven they're juicy but I waited too long and they dried pretty quickly, so I added Tzatziki too.
     
  2. My husband and I just loved this recipe! I made 6 patties using 1 1/2 lbs. of lean hamburger, 1/2 c. feta, about 3/4 of the lemon rind. I didn't have any mint but added some chopped black olives and onion, then we grilled them. I served them with Tzatziki Cucumber Dipping Sauce #83189. This will be one of my summertime favorites! Thanks for posting!!
     
  3. This was yummy and made the cucumber dip also so good!!! Will make this again for sure :-)
     
  4. I was surprised at how much flavor there was for so few ingredients. I really liked the lemon and mint in these. They did get a tad dry, but I anticipated that and made a Tzatziki sauce to serve on them that went perfectly! Super simple burgers too.
     
  5. Not on weight watchers but my daughters home from college trying to lose the freshman 15. The whole family thought these were delicious. Served them on gf buns because she has food allergies. I added oregano to the turkey, made a homemade tazikki w fat free Greek yogurt, diced cucumber and dill. So good I'll be adding in to normal routine around here.

I am finally learning how to cook thanks to recipezaar! I haven't really made up any of my own recipes yet, but I have made a lot of the ones posted on here. Asian food is my favorite thing to make, and I also enjoy making desserts (especially cheesecake). I am amazed by how easy it has been for me to learn how to cook. I always used to think cooking was so hard and time-consuming, but I learned that once you have all the ingredients and proper equipment on hand it's not very difficult. I used to only cook stuff in the microwave or in the crockpot, but since I joined recipezaar I have been working my way up to more and more challenging recipes.
