Basil Burgers with Sun-Dried Tomato Mayonnaise
I often end up with a bumper crop of basil—here's a favorite way to use some of it. These burgers feature great Italian flavor. The gooey, cheesy centers and scrumptious topping are irresistible. —Virginia Kochis, Springfield, Virginia

Nice spin.on a traditional burgers. I am always on the lookout for recipes using fresh basil.
My husband could eat a burger everyday. 2 of my favorite flavors basil and sundried tomatoes. We always have SD tomatoes, so I rinsed and drained them and dried off with a paper towel. Will be grilling these again! VFE
After tasting the tomato/mayo mixture on its own, I thought it would be absolutely disgusting. However, I decided to take a leap of faith and put it on the burger. While disgusting on its own, it works SO well with the burger. This was absolutely amazing.
These were a nice change from a standard grilled burger! The basil and sauce definitely give it more of an Italian vibe. We had a lot of sauce leftover though.
YES! Like some others, I put the cheese on top of the burger instead. It is a bigger hit with me and my husband than with the kids.
There just wasn't enough flavor.

Ok
The basil gives these burgers a nice summery flavor. The sun-dried tomato mayo was a hit with my family. I prepped the mayo and the burgers the night before so I only had to throw them on the grill for a delicious weeknight dinner. I melted the cheese on top instead of stuffing the burgers.
My family loved this recipe! It's a keeper! Very flavorful and the hamburgers don't fall apart
