Mini Pizza Burger

1 lb ground beef

4 small sandwich buns

4 slices of mozzarella cheese

1 tomato, sliced

1/2 cup pizza sauce

1 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp dried basil

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for grilling

Prepare the Patties:

Divide the ground beef into four equal portions and shape them into small patties. Season both sides with salt, pepper, oregano, and basil.

Cook the Patties:

Heat a grill pan or skillet with a little olive oil over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired doneness.

Toast the Buns:

While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the sandwich buns in a separate pan or under the broiler until golden brown.

Assemble the Mini Pizza Burgers:

Once the patties are cooked, spread a generous amount of pizza sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Place the cooked patties on top and add a slice of mozzarella cheese on each patty.

Melt the Cheese:

Place the mini burgers under the broiler for about 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Add the Toppings:

Top each mini pizza burger with a slice of tomato and a sprinkle of oregano and basil for extra flavor.

Serve:

Place the top bun on the burgers and serve them hot!
