The Mediterranean Lamb Burger transports your taste buds to sun-drenched coastal villages with its aromatic blend of lamb, feta cheese, and fresh herbs. This burger celebrates the vibrant flavors of Mediterranean cuisine, combining ground lamb seasoned with oregano and garlic, topped with cool tzatziki sauce and crisp vegetables.

What makes this burger exceptional is the interplay between the rich, slightly gamey lamb and the bright, tangy accompaniments. The feta cheese crumbles add pockets of salty creaminess, while the tzatziki provides a refreshing cucumber-yogurt contrast. Fresh tomatoes and red onion bring crisp texture and garden-fresh flavor that cuts through the meat's richness beautifully.

This burger is perfect for summer grilling sessions or when you want to explore flavors beyond traditional beef burgers. It pairs wonderfully with a simple Greek salad or crispy seasoned fries, making it an elegant yet approachable weeknight dinner option.
