Mushroom and Onion Burgers

One of my husband’s co-workers quit and he has been pulling double duty doing both of their jobs and staying a couple hours late each night to help keep things running smoothly. He is worn out and tired at the end of the day but in good spirits. In an effort to make things a bit easier on him I have been putting together recipes that he loves when he gets home each day.  When he got home from work on Saturday we kicked off the weekend with juicy mushroom and onion burgers.

These super simple burgers are mixed with diced mushrooms and onions and topped with fried mushrooms and onions to pack them with even more flavor. My secret ingredient for tough weeks like this is added of course. Tumeric is such a simple add in but it packs a powerful punch for pain and inflammation.
