I know burgers are a “man’s food” but I have to admit that I could eat a burger every week and not get bored. And even though I love beef burgers, I’m not picky either – I’ll eat chicken, veggie (portobellos…mmmm), you name it. One of my favorite things to do is to play around with the flavors going into and outside of the burger.
Today’s dish creates a cilantro-red pepper pesto which tops a semi-plain beef burger. Pineapple complements the sweetness of the red pepper pesto. Grilling is best for this recipe as both the burgers and pineapple are grilled.
GRILLED PINEAPPLE BURGERS WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER PESTO
Mix beef, egg and oats together and season with salt and pepper. Form into patties. Grill until desired level of doneness has been achieved and top with cheese slices.
Spoon 2-3 T of pesto on to each burger bun. Top with burgers and pineapple slices.
Pesto
In a food processor, combine cilantro, roasted red peppers, pistachios, garlic and olive oil and process until smooth.

Sometimes things backfire on me and I wonder why I didn’t just stick to the usual. Like the one time…

So I just recently discovered blood oranges. They had been on my list of “must-try” for ages but I just never got around to it. They look really weird and they stain like crazy. I would know. But they are delish and full of flavor. Sweet with a slight undertone of tartness, these red oranges…
I love salads but I have to admit, the lazy side of me sometimes balks at the thought of having to wash all that produce and then chop everything up. It’s embarrassing really considering salads are one of the easiest foods to prepare. Pretty sure already washed and chopped lettuce bags were made just for…
What do I love about this recipe? First of all, it’s a breakfast food which can also be used as a dessert (score!). And second of all, it’s so easy and takes mere minutes to prepare and then cook. This is not only a great year-round recipe but it is the perfect recipe for fall. I…
