Instructions

Earlier in the day, I make the bruschetta. Cut tomatoes in half and squeeze to remove seeds. Dice tomatoes and place in bowl. Add diced garlic, basil, salt and olive oil. Cover and place in frig. at least 4 hours before grilling burgers. For the burgers, in large bowl, mix meat, breadcrumbs, cheese, egg, garlic salt, margoram, nutmeg and water. Mix well and form into 4 burgers. Grill on low turning frequently until cooked through. To serve, with slotted spoon, top with heaping spoonful of bruschetta, top with mozzarella, place on crusty bun or bread. I have also served these on Italian bread brushed with olive oil and grilled. Mangia!
