¼ cup drained, chopped Krinos sun-dried tomatoes in oil

To Make

1. Pre-heat barbecue grill to high for 10 minutes.

2. In a large bowl, combine burger ingredients and mix to combine, being careful not to over mix. Shape into 6 patties, each 1/2–inch (1 cm) thick.

3. Reduce heat to medium and place burgers on lightly greased grill, cover and cook for about 8 minutes on each side or until an instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into the centre reads 165F (74C).

4. Meanwhile, in a skillet melt butter over medium heat and sauté mushrooms until golden. Stir in capers, lemon zest and juice and sauté for 5 minutes.

5. Place burger patties on buns. Top with lettuce, tomato and mushroom mixture. Serve with tzatziki. Enjoy!
