Who doesn’t love a good burger? Sometimes it’s a nice change to do something a little different and the kids will love them. This is an inexpensive way to serve an old favorite with a little flash especially if you have leftovers from the big cookout. For a little more Italian flavor sprinkle a little basil over the pizza sauce before adding the cheese.
