2 medium tomatoes, cut into 1-inch-thick slices
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
hamburger buns
Directions:
Preheat grill. In large mixing bowl, mix meat with basil, chili pepper and 1 1/2 tbsp of olive oil.
Season with salt and pepper; cover and refrigerate 10 minutes.
In large bowl, gently toss zucchini and tomatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, salt and vinegar.
Divide meat mixture into 8 portions and flatten with hands to make patties.
Grill hamburgers until meat is cooked through.
Grill zucchini and tomatoes, turning them frequently until zucchini softens and both zucchini and tomatoes are browned on both sides. (Foreman grill is great for this).
