Total Time:
Elevate your cheeseburger by stuffing it in a pita with zesty veggies and melty cheese.
Ingredients:
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • 1/2 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup purchased balsamic vinaigrette
  • 1 lb. lean (at least 80%) ground beef
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion (1 medium)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic-pepper blend
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 (1-oz.) thin slices Havarti cheese
  • 2 (8-inch) pita (pocket) breads, halved
Instructions:
  • Preheat gas or charcoal grill. Combine tomatoes, cucumber, and vinaigrette in a shallow bowl. Allow to marinate while you make the patties.
  • Mix ground beef, onion, Italian seasoning, garlic-pepper blend, and salt in a bowl until well combined. Shape into 4 oblong patties, each about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Once the grill is hot, place the patties on a gas or charcoal grill over medium heat, about 4 to 6 inches away from the heat source. Cover the grill and cook for 11 to 13 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted in the center reads 160°F, flipping the patties once. In the last 1 to 2 minutes, add cheese to the patties and cook until melted.
  • Assemble cheese-topped patties inside pita bread halves and add tomato-cucumber mixture.
