Zucchini Beef Burgers

In today’s edition of “hide the vegetables” we trick our meat loving friends into indulging in a zucchini laden beef burger…

One of my favorite requests is from folks looking to find secret ways to “hide” veggies to help unsuspecting “veggie haters” get more greens in their diet. One way I love to do this is with pasta sauce like this Cauliflower Alfredo or Carrot Mac and Cheese and burgers can be a surprisingly easy place to hide veggies. In this recipe we are going to add lots of shredded zucchini to our burger meat and impart some great flavors with spices so that the zucchini will go virtually undetected. Once you layer it into a hearty roll and load it up with condiments, no one will be wise to the fact that they are eating their veggies too.
