STEP 4
Combine remaining olives, remaining sun-dried tomatoes and salsa in bowl.
STEP 5
Place 1 lettuce leaf onto bottom half of each bun; top with burgers, salsa mixture and top half of buns.
Sun-dried tomatoes are simply dried tomatoes. The drying process results in a intense-flavored tomato with a chewy texture and deep red color. They can be purchased packed in oil, like we use in these burgers, or dry-packed. If you would like the dry tomatoes in these burgers, be sure to soak in liquid before using.
These beautiful burgers are loaded with flavors like pesto or chipotle, and topped with melting cheese and veggie-based condiments such as guacamole, roasted red peppers or pico de gallo. Grill on!
