Tonight I made hidden spinach and kraut burgers that were awesome! The blogger talks about paleo and AIP but I don't follow that. I don't even know what AIP is. So I did change a couple of the ingredients. I also didn't serve them on those butternut squash roll things but they do look good!
This is what I made:
2 pounds ground beef
2 handfuls spinach
~2 cups sauerkraut
3/4 cup milk
~1/3 cup breadcrumbs (I would've used a little more too but I ran out. Next time, I might just do oats)
onion powder
garlic powder
salt
parsley
Then I followed the instructions (blend spinach, sauerkraut, milk in blender til smooth. Dump in bowl, add spices. Mix. Add meat and breadcrumbs. Mix. Make patties and bake at 400 for 25 minutes).
The original poster got 5-6 patties out of this but those must've been HUGE because I made what I thought were huge and I still got 9.
I will also mention that the end result is not green! There are tiny flecks of green (that could be the parsley) and it leaks out a little green but if you don't tell anyone, there is no way they could guess that there is spinach and sauerkraut in there! I was truly amazed!!
I served this with roasted radishes and brussels sprouts. These turned out great too. I tossed with oil, seasoned with a little salt and thyme and then baked at 400 (because the burgers were 400) for 20ish minutes. I don't even normally like radishes but roasting them makes them so much better (and not spicy!).
The meal tonight was fantastic! I will definitely be making both of these dishes again and again!!
