Started with a large platter of primo avocado, quintessential flavor,   No adorning needed.

 

Husband asked if I could make "hamburgers" "juicy".    Like how?   Like can you add something...like oatmeal?    Or panko?    Oh...you mean like fried meatloaf?     YES!

Okay,     Fried meatloaf, garlicky and buttery zucchini, frying peppers.   Fried meatloaf?    Feel like I'm in a limbo contest.

As for suggestions about how to make a juicy hamburger, James Beard would put a little piece of ice in the middle of the hamburger to keep it from cooking as much as the outside and Anne Rosenzweig, owner of the Lobster Club in NYC would put a pad of butter in the middle.  She combined fresh thyme, sage, parsley, chives and rosemary in a blender, stirred it into softened butter, then inside a piece of plastic wrap, she rolled it into a log and refrigerated it until ready to cut off a piece and put inside the hamburger.
