Pesto Hamburgers - Freezer Meal



Recipe: Unknown

I made freezer meals a few weeks ago. This is one of the recipes I tried. I haven't served these yet though, so I can't comment on the finished meal.

Hamburgers
3 lbs. hamburger
3 bread slices
2 onions, chopped
3 eggs
3/4 cup parmesan cheese
6 TBSP pesto sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced


Basil Mayo
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 TBSP pesto

Combine egg, bread crumbs, onion, cheese, pesto and garlic, mixing well. Add ground beef, stirring until fully combined. Divide into 12 burgers (about 5" diameter), making sure to depress the center of each slightly. Flash freeze on cookie sheet, then transfer into freezer ziploc bags. Or separate each with wax paper and freeze stacked.

To Serve: Thaw burgers the night before in refrigerator. Cook on grill until center of burger reaches 160 degrees. Serve with basil mayonnaise on a bun with your choice of burger toppings.
