We all know nothing quite hits the spot on a summer day than a juicy burger.  Try my Mediterranean Burger if you are looking for a change to your classic recipe.  Plus, they are super easy to make; just imagine garlic, red peppers, creamy mozzarella all topped off with a slice of tomato and peppery arugula.  

1 1/2 pounds of ground beef

1 egg slightly beaten

1/4 cup of grated bread crumbs

1 jar of red peppers with garlic cloves (you will only be using 2 garlic cloves and 3 red peppers of this)

1 tsp of of Season All

1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce

4 slices of mozzarella cheese

4 slices of a tomato

1 small package of argula

4 hamburger buns (I like the honey whole wheat)

1.  Coat grill rack with cooking spray and then start it.  

2.   Open the jar of red peppers with garlic cloves.  Remove two of the garlic cloves and mince.   Take three red peppers and dice.

3.  In a large bowl combine the first six ingredients and mix throughly.

4.  Shape beef mixture into four 3/4  in thick patties. 

5.  Grill burgers uncovered on medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side.  On the last minute of cooking add a slice of mozzarella cheese.  

6.  Split rolls in half and toast cut sides on the grill. 

7.  Serve burgers on buns and top with a slice of tomato and a small bunch of arugula.
