Good weekday meal. I substituted shallots for green peppers, because that is what I had on hand. I would definitely make it again.01/27/10

These were delicious! I sauteed the green pepper along with some minced onion in olive oil to make the burgers juicer. I served with the herb marinated onions and a caprese salad. The whole family loved it!06/09/09
