Recipe mostly adapted from: Primal Palette

and how to do a poached egg from: paleotable

Burgers:

1 lb of lean ground beef (made 4 burgers)
1 free range egg (lightly beaten)
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
crushed red pepper
garlic powder

Directions: Mix meat with egg and spices then form into patties. I cooked mine in a large skillet over medium high heat,also the first time I did these I covered it before the first flip, then flipped it and covered it again... because a with a grill you would put the cover down.. when I did this on the skillet it helped keep it moist, and then another time I did it without covering and it took forever to cook and was kind of dried out. So if your using a skillet like I did I would cover it for cooking.

"Buns"- Big piece of lettuce from a head of lettuce
1 slice of tomato
1 avocado per burger
1 poached egg per burger if ya like them( i love it!!)- Poach egg by cracking them into a large shallow pan of boiling water. Remove when eggs rise to the top and the whites solidify.

  1. This sounds great. I've never used lettuce as a bun, poached an egg or bought an avocado. What the heck, I'm doing it tonight.

  6. These are great! They're incredibly messy though. I need to improve my ability to use lettuce as a bun. I plan on getting lots more practice :)

  7. Perhaps the sides of red pepper will do the trick for a bun
