Assemble your burgers. I like to serve them open faced. But it’s easier to put a top on for little kids to eat. Toasted bun, Tomato Jam, patty, spinach, roasted peppers, cucumbers and red onions. Then place a spoonful of lemon feta sauce on top. Serve warm with grilled vegetables or fries on the side.
