PALEO BURGERS WITH CARAMELIZED BALSAMIC ONIONS & AVOCADO

Read...

Burgers and even STEAKS can be just as good and juice when you make them on a skillet. The key is making sure your pan is seared hot so that you can get a nice sear on your meat to lock in the flavors!

I cannot wait for you to try these burgers. I promise you won't even miss the bun. Bon Appetit sweet friends.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
