Ingredients:

• 1 pound pastured ground beef, pork or chicken (we like a mixture of beef and pork.)
• 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
• 1 medium carrot, shredded
• 1 medium zucchini, shredded
• 1/2 sweet onion, finely chopped
• 1 large handful chopped fresh spinach
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley or 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1-2 tablespoons avocado oil, coconut oil or grape seed oil

Instructions:

1. In a frying pan, saute the vegetables and spices in the oil until the vegetables are soft.  Allow to cool to room temperature.
2. In a large bowl, combine the vegetable mixture, ground meat and the parmesan cheese.  Mix well and form into patties.  Grill the patties on low to prevent charring.
