    I don't know quite how they got there, but I have 40 beefburgers in my freezer.:o We have no money to buy any extras today but in my fridge right now I have broccoli, a cauli, an onion, iceburg lettuce. We have frozen pittas and sliced white bread. We have no potatoes, but all other store cupboard staples.

    Any suggestions of what I can start using these burgers for other than in sliced white bread please?

    burgers with cauliflower/brocolli cheese
    pittas filled with burgers, lettuce and caramelised onion ( and a tom if you have one)

    If you have any pasta you could cook them and chop them up and mix them threw like you do chicken.

    Thank you, three great ideas, I think we'll do the pittas tonight, I don't want to frighten Mr Banwa by doing something as exotic as burger pasta on the first night.:rotfl:

    So now all I need is 17 more ideas to use up the rest:D

    Break them up and roll them into meatballs.

    Depending on the quality of them you could probably break them down into a sort of mince (prob quite high in fat though so I would drain that off!) x

    Use it as any other meat...

    Burgers with mashed potatoes, veg and gravy :D

    Jacket potato burger - use a jacket spud instead of bread (courtesy of slimming world recipe!) and add usual fillings; salad, tomatoes etc

    Burger Roast - burgers with roast spuds and all the trimmings... why not?

    Turn into meatballs and serve in tomato sauce over spaghetti

    Perhaps in an omelette? I do it with sausages when we fancy a change, take the skin off and fry the resulting 'mush' with onion, then use as an omelette filling.

    I've used burgers to make a variation on iskender kebab - chopped cooked lamb kebab (or indeed beefburger ;)) in a herby tomato sauce, served with natural yoghurt (if you've got any) and grilled pitta breads. It's surprisingly tasty. :)
    Back after a very long break!

    Defrost them and mush together into a meatloaf? Good with gravy and veg or tomato based sauce and salad.

    Hmmm migh have to get some burgers...
