Summer Tortellini via momsie

momsie is my favorite local mom blog (other than my own column at Modern Parent, of course!) Beth is awesome and her blog is a great way to keep your finger on the pulse of what's going on for kids in Charlotte. She is currently working on keeping her main dinner dishes to seven or less ingredients, and this is one of her recipes that I am dying to try!

Delicious Hamburgers

Alright, y'all. Remember last summer, when I was on a quest to find the perfect burger recipe? Well, I'm back at it again! Barry and I just love burgers--whether they're made of beef, turkey, chicken, lamb or bison (need to try to make one of those at home!)--so, I'll be testing out more ways to make them this summer. This weather is just perfect for grillin', don't you agree?!


Delicious Hamburgers

1 1/2 lbs ground beef (y'all KNOW I used 96/4)
1/2 an onion, finely chopped
1 t soy sauce
1 t Worcestershire sauce
1 egg, beaten
1 1 oz envelope dry onion soup mix
1 clove minced garlic
1/2 T garlic powder
1 t dried parsley
1/2 t crushed rosemary
1 t Italian seasoning blend

Preheat your grill for high heat. In a large bowl, mix beef, onion, soy sauce, Worcestershire, egg, dry onion soup mix, minced garlic, garlic powder, parsley, rosemary and Italian seasoning blend. Form into four patties. Grill until well done. ENJOY!
