For a richer flavor, use a combination of ground lamb and beef. Feel free to add other Greek-inspired ingredients to the burger mixture, such as crumbled feta cheese, chopped Kalamata olives, or sun-dried tomatoes. For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free breadcrumbs or almond flour. Serve with a side of Greek salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
