Greek Burgers

PREP: 20 minutes
BROIL: 11 minutes
MAKES: 4 servings

1/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1 slightly beaten egg
1 tablespoon milk
1 0.7 ounce envelope Italian salad dressing mix (5 teaspoons)
1 pound ground beef
4 pita bread rounds, toasted
1 recipe Greek Salsa
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

In a medium bowl combine bread crumbs, egg, milk, and half of the salad dressing mix (2.5 teaspoons). Add beef; mix well. Shape  burger mixture into four 6-inch-long x 1/2-inch-thick oval patties.

Place patties on the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat for 11 to 13 minutes or until no longer pink, turning once halfway through broiling time.

Serve the burgers in pita bread rounds. Top with Greek Salsa and sprinkle with feta cheese.

GREEK SALSA
In a small bowl stir together 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar, 2 teaspoons olive oil, and the remaining half of the salad dressing mix. Stir in 1 cup finely chopped tomato, 1/4 cup finely chopped cucumber, and 1/4 cup finely chopped olives. Makes about 1 1/3 cups.

My Note:  My sister sent this recipe over to me and told me I had to try it.  I made it last night and I LOVED it!  The burgers were very juicy, and the seasoning was heavenly.  They were definitely worth making.  They weren't that hard either.
