1 tbsp garlic, chopped (2 cloves)
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

Instructions

Start by making the potatoes. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss the potatoes in the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Lay flat on the baking sheet and roast for 40 minutes, tossing halfway through.

Combine burger ingredients together in a large bowl and mix until combined. Form into 5-6 patties, about 1⁄2 inch thick. Press your thumb down in the middle of each patty slightly.

Add avocado oil to medium skillet on medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip, then cook for another 5 minutes. Add 2 tbsp of water to the pan, reduce heat to low, and cover to finish cooking.

Heat a large skillet or a griddle over medium heat and spray with avocado oil. Cook burgers for 5-6 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 5 minutes. Add 2 tbsp of water to the pan, reduce heat to low, and cover to finish cooking.

Build your bowl by layering the burger and fries with toppings of your choice. Enjoy!

Notes

Grilling instructions: If using the grill, simply cook for 5 minutes each side over medium high heat.
