This recipe I have fallen in love with and is perfect for any time of year. I love the fresh bright flavors that remind me so much of summertime, while it is just as easily adaptable during the cool and colder months. What makes this so delicious is the freshness is the lemon zest, the richness of the goat cheese, and the texture contrast in the middle of the burger with the Pine Nuts. You can't go wrong here.
