Easy Potato Salad
Clock

Ingredients

  • 1½ lb ground beef chuck (80% lean)
  • ¼ cup finely snipped fresh Italian parsley
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
  • 4 oz mozzarella or smoked mozzarella cheese, coarsely shredded
  • 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil (optional)
  • 4 eggs (optional)
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • Bacon-or garlic-flavored mayonnaise
  • Fresh basil leaves or spinach leaves

Instructions

  1. Preheat charcoal or gas grill to medium. In a large bowl gently mix beef, parsley, butter, ½ tsp salt and ¼ tsp pepper. Form into eight ¼-inch-thick patties.
  2. If desired, pour oil into large skillet fitted with lid over medium. When it shimmers, crack each egg into a small bowl; tip each into pan.
  3. Sprinkle lightly with additional salt and pepper; cover. Cook eggs until desired doneness; transfer to a plate.
  4. Cover and grill patties directly over heat 6 minutes, turning once and topping with cheese the last minute.
  5. To serve, spread 2 Tbsp mayonnaise on cut sides of buns, if desired. Stack two patties on a bun bottom. Top with fried egg, if desired, basil leaves, and bun top.

Side Dish Ingredients

  • 3 medium white, red, or Yukon gold potatoes (1 lb), rinsed and scrubbed but not peeled
  • ½ cup light sour cream
  • 2 Tbsp bottled vinaigrette
  • 2 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
  • ½ cup chopped celery
  • ⅓ cup chopped sweet onion

  2. In medium bowl whisk together sour cream and vinaigrette. Fold in eggs, sour cream, celery, and onion. Add the potatoes. Toss lightly to coat. Refrigerate leftovers.
