Ingredients you will need
- Hamburger bun dough home made or store bought – Home made link here
- Ground beef – use lean or not that’s is up to you but be sure to drain any excess fat since you will be baking it in the dough and you don’t want it to get greasy.
- Onion diced- if you like onions on your burger you can also leave some raw for that flavor, I cooked all of mine since I like that flavor of cooked onions better.
- Parsley flakes – use dried or fresh that is up to you
- Minced garlic – garlic powder will also work
- Italian seasoning- this is usually a seasoning mixture of oregano, basil, thyme and rosemary with some variations depending on that brand you have.
- Tomato sauce – using spaghetti sauce or pizza sauce in a pinch can work also.
- Salt and pepper to taste – always season with your heart.
