Mediterranean Lamb Quinoa Burgers
Easy Cooking, Great Results
Mediterranean Lamb Quinoa Burgers make a nice game day meal packed with Mediterranean Flavor and a mixture of basmati rice and quinoa to create texture and bind the burger together. We like to top these burgers with a light mint yogurt sauce, arugula and tomatoes.
