Instructions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, crumbled feta cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

  5. Once the burgers are done, toast the buns lightly on the grill or in a pan.
  6. Assemble the burgers by placing a patty on the bottom half of each bun, adding fresh spinach, tomato, and red onion slices. Top generously with tzatziki sauce and finish with the top half of the bun.
