Notes

For a different twist, you can use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef. Leftovers store well in the fridge for 3-4 days, and the flavors often improve. They can also be frozen up to 3 months. For presentation, serve the mini burger steaks over mashed potatoes or with a garnish of fresh parsley. Enjoy them as a fun appetizer at parties by serving them skewered with toothpicks.
