Stuffed Mediterranean Burgers + Easy Lemon Potatoes

April 8, 2020 by Mia Zarlengo 23 Comments

Through these burgers and potatoes together on a whim and I could not get over how delish they were!! The burgers have so much flavor, and a ton of extra nutrients packed in. Plus, they pair perfectly with the lemony roasted potatoes- which get cooked to absolute perfection!

You can never go wrong with some burgers and fries. I love having this type of meal over a big bed of greens for extra veg. Splash it with some vinegar and olive oil for the best flavor combo with this dish! Trust me.

This is a super simple recipe, perfect for both weeknights and weekends. I honestly could eat this multiple times a week, every week! So good.

I love sneaking in extra veggies any way I can! One of my favorite ways is to toss in a bunch of fresh veggies and herbs to burgers. It makes for the most delicious and nutrient-dense meal!

Let me know what you think below and be sure to tag me on Instagram if you make these! It makes my day 🙂

Enjoy! xo

  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Juice of 1 lemon⠀
  • Fresh parsley, for topping

For the burgers:

  • 1 lb ground chicken (or turkey) ⠀
  • 1/2 cup chopped baby spinach ⠀
  • 1/2 bell pepper, diced ⠀
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley⠀
  • 1/4 heaping cup crumbled feta ⠀
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, chopped (optional)⠀

    These were delicious! I made them into sliders (which made 9) and had 2 over a salad. I also added a little feta to the potato wedges when they were done. Looking forward to having the leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

    Made this with lamb and it was so good! Put it over some greens with oil and vinegar and then added some tzatziki to it and it was incredible. Made it two days in a row!

    These were AMAZING! They were so flavorful. We added some jalapeño to the burgers, which tasted great.
    Made extras for lunch and they reheated so perfectly (added a little drizzle of olive oil on top before reheating).

    These burgers are SO GOOD. Quickly became a go-to recipe for me, especially in the summer months. And dare I say they may be even better reheated?!

    I made the lemon potatoes last night and they were DIVINE! I added a minced garlic clove (mainly because I was already chopping it) and they came out so delicious. I will be making again! Thank you Mia, I LOVE your blog & insta!
