One easy way to broaden the palates of your picky eaters is to take two foods you know they like, and put them together. These pizza burgers are a great example.

Serve these pizza burgers with roasted green beans and Italian pasta salad.

Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 lbs. 85% lean ground beef
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. freshly-ground black pepper
  • 12-18 slices regular or turkey pepperoni
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
  • ketchup
  • potato bread hamburger buns

Preparation:

  1. Prepare grill or heat a cast iron grill pan on the stove over medium heat.

  2. Combine ground beef, salt and pepper. Form into 6 patties, being careful not to overwork the meat. (Click here for more tips on grilling perfect burgers)

  4. Top each burger with 2-3 slices pepperoni and a slice of cheese. Grill to desired doneness, another 2-4 minutes.
