Good to Know
Keep cooked burgers refrigerated up to 3 days; salad components best assembled just before serving
Prepare salad mixture (without dressing or tzatziki) up to 4 hours ahead; grill burgers fresh or reheat gently
Serve on warmed plates immediately after assembly for contrast between warm burger and cool salad
Common Mistakes
Do not over-grill pre-made burgers to avoid drying them out; follow pack instructions closely
