Greek chicken burgers with spinach and cream cheese

International Hamburger Day, celebrated each year on 28 May, is more than a nod to the classic beef patty – it's a celebration of how the humble burger has evolved across kitchens, cultures, and cravings. What started as a simple sandwich has become a global canvas for creativity. These days, the burger doesn't always mean beef. From lentil patties to spicy bean blends and seafood options, the variations are endless. One standout twist is the Greek chicken burger – tender grilled chicken layered with creamy spinach and cream cheese. Recipe compliments of Lancewood.
