Asian Slaw Burgers

I love these burgers - gourmet all the way. They have just the right amount of flavor. I infused Asian flavor into the ground beef and then of course added it into the coleslaw. You get a mouthful of crisp, crunchy slaw coated in creamy ginger dressing on a juicy beef patty on a delicious bun! No need for condiments with this burger it has an act all of it's own!

These are great with sweet potato fries.

Asian Slaw

• 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh grated ginger

• 2 Tbsp oil
• 1/2 bag freshly cut coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots)
