Day 8: Burger Showdown


Zack and I had a paleo burger showdown. I will admit that Zack's probably wins based on looks, but mine was super flavorful. Bottomline: as lame as it sounds, we couldn't decide on a winner. Tie.

My Burger - Green Chili Burger (shown on left)
Ingredients:
2 (4 oz.) cans diced green chiles
1 pound ground grassfed beef
½ Tbsp dried cilantro, (the original recipe calls for fresh cilantro, and I recommend using that if you have it on hand. Make sure to increase the amount.)
½ cup onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon grey sea salt

Directions:
In a medium sized bowl mix diced chiles with beef, cilantro, onion, cumin, chili powder and salt
Form into burgers and grill
Serve with guacamole or avocado slices

Zack's Burger - Garden Pepper Burger (shown on right)
Ingredients:
1 lb grassfed beef
2 cayenne peppers, chopped
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fresh oregano, chopped
1 Tbsp fresh chives, chopped
1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 pinch of salt

Directions:
In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients
Form into burgers and grill
Serve with avocado, bacon, tomato (all optional)

  1. Ties are lame!!! Next time bring in a taste for me and I'll be the tie breaker.
