The Prep:
Â
I like a big burger, so I like to only make 3 burgers with this mixture, but you can stretch it to 4.
Â
Grilling them over the onions adds so much extra flavor, but if you don’t have a flat top grill, you can cook these on a bbq grill. I suggest to smash the onions into the burger patties before grilling and minimize flipping the burgers.
Â
Add whatever toppings you want, but the smashed avocado at the bottom is the best and adds a little bit of creaminess to the burger!

3o minute busy mom dinner series
I started this series thinking it would be a few quick and easy options for busy weeknights, but I really don’t see this series ever ending or at least anytime soon!Â
Â
obviously you don’t have to be a mom to make these meals and enjoy them, but I did set out with a purpose and that was to help moms feel a little less stressed in the kitchen when it came to putting easy + healthy meals on the table for their family!
