ITALIAN BURGERS

Category: Burgers

4-1/2 lbs lean ground beef
3/4 cup Italian Dressing
3/4 cup finely chopped green onions
6 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
4 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
12 hamburger buns
12 slices mozzarella or provolone cheese (optional)
Lettuce (optional)
Tomato slices (optional)

Combine ground beef, Italian dressing, green onions, Parmesan cheese and garlic in a large bowl; shape into 12 (3/4-inch-thick) patties.

If making ahead and freezing, individually wrap each burger patty with plastic wrap. Place 4 wrapped burgers in each of 3 large resealable freezer bags. Thaw burgers in refrigerator overnight. Preheat grill. Grill 13 minutes or until desired doneness, turning once.

Serve on buns with mozzarella cheese, lettuce and tomato, if desired.
