Instructions
Make the Burgers

- Divide mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties with a slight indentation in the center.
Cook
- Heat olive oil in a skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
- Cook patties for 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until browned and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Assemble
- Toast buns if desired.
- Place cooked patties on bottom buns and top each with sliced brie. Broil or cover skillet for 1 minute until melted.
- Add cranberry sauce and greens.
- Top with bun and serve immediately.

- Swap cranberry sauce for fig jam for a gourmet twist.
- Arugula works beautifully here.
