Ingredients

  • 1½ lb 90% lean ground beef
  • 8 oz mushrooms
  • 1½ lb carrots
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 bunch fresh parsley
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Steps

  1. Cut carrots into 1/2-inch coins, toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt, spread on a baking sheet, and roast at 425°F for 20–25 minutes until fork-tender; toss with honey and balsamic vinegar in the last minute of roasting.
  2. While carrots roast, finely chop mushrooms, mix into ground beef with salt and pepper, and form into four 8-ounce patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
  3. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook patties 5–6 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 160°F; rest 2 minutes.
  4. Transfer patties to plates, top with chopped fresh parsley, and serve with roasted carrots on the side.
  5. Picky eater tip: serve the patty plain and the carrots before they are glazed.
  6. Make ahead: mix and shape the patties up to 1 day ahead and cut the carrots; refrigerate both covered.

On the side: Warm pita and hummus (5 min)

1 package pita bread, 1 container hummus

  1. Warm the pitas in a dry skillet or the oven for 1 to 2 minutes, cut into wedges and serve with the hummus.
