Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine your ground meat, mashed blueberries, crumbled feta, parsley, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and some salt and pepper. Mix well but avoid overworking the mixture.
  2. Form the mixture into patties. Choose your preferred size.
Cooking
  1. Preheat your grill or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
Prepare Aioli
  1. While the burgers are cooking, combine the jalapeño aioli ingredients in a small bowl. Adjust spice levels as desired.
Assembly
  1. Once your patties are done, place them on the buns and drizzle generously with the jalapeño aioli. Add any additional toppings as desired.
Serving
  1. Serve with a side of sweet potato fries or a salad.

Notes

Chill patties for about 30 minutes before cooking to help them hold together. Don’t skip the aioli for a flavor boost. Oil grill grates to prevent sticking.
