Some day I am going to travel to Greece. I think I would like to go on a cruise of the islands and then pick my favorite one and stay in a villa by the sea side for the whole summer. I will hire a Greek chef who will cook for me and teach me how to make wonderful recipes (in between sitting on the beach, taking walks among ruins, and swimming/boating of course). Friends and family will be welcome to come stay for as long as they like. Until then I am going to make yummy recipes like these and pretend;).
Mediterranean Burgers
My Mom thinks she got this recipe from me. I can't remember.
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1 cup yogurt
½ teaspoon cumin
1 pound lean ground beef or lamb
1 tablespoon ginger, minced
1/4 cup minced green onion
1/4 cup cilantro, minced
Garlic salt--to taste
Hot sauce--to taste
2 pita rounds
Thin slices peeled cucumber
Lettuce leaves
Combine first 3 ingredients; blend well; chill 1 hour. Combine next 6 ingredients. Shape into 4 patties ½-inch thick. Grill or broil for 6 to 7 minutes on each side till done. Serve patties in pita halves with cucumber, lettuce leaves and about 2 teaspoons feta-yogurt mixture.

I'll come with you. Even though maybe we don't really know each other.
And this looks DEEEEEELICIOUS.
I'll eat this and it even sounds like something my husband might like. Thanks for the recipe.
