Recipe: Grilled Hawaiian Burgers with Onion and Pineapple

24 May

We. Love. Hamburgers. (Want proof? This blog is only three months old and this is our third burger recipe. See the other two here: Naked Turkey Burgers, Blue Cheese Burgers.)

We like em naked, we like em clothed, and yes my purist friends, we even like them with ketchup. (Some would say that last statement is blasphemy, and to them I say, “get over it”.)

Because of our love for all things burgers and grilling, we’re constantly on the lookout for more ways to indulge in this seemingly all-American food choice. And hey, if we can do it semi-healthfully, we will! Here’s a recipe that never fails to satisfy AND encourage a healthy lifestyle.

  • cooking spray
  • ¼ cup cilantro, chopped

Directions:

  1. Prepare the grill.
