Description

These Bacon Pesto Stuffed Burgers are absolutely fantastic, especially when you’re craving some protein with lots of flavor. Paleo approved, naturally gluten-free and dairy-free.


Ingredients

Scale
  • lb ground beef
  • 4 tbsp of Paleo Pesto (read below for homemade)
  • 5 strips of bacon, cooked and diced
  • 1 tbsp Montreal Steak spice

Instructions

  1. Make patties. Set broiler on high, arranging rack so that patties are about 2″ from the heat.
  2. Mix ground beef and Montreal Steak spice in a bowl, and form 8 thin patties out of the mixture, setting them on a plate.
  3. Transfer 4 patties to a baking pan, aligning them on a straight line lengthwise in the middle; add 1 tbsp pesto and a few pieces of bacon on the middle of each patty; cover with remaining 4 patties and pinch the meat around the edges to keep the pesto and bacon stuffing inside.
  4. Broil for 12 minutes total, flipping patties half way. Serve right away with favorite condiments.

Notes

  1. I recommend topping each patty with a bit of Sriracha sauce…you know, to add some zing.
