Spiced mini burgers with couscous

1 10oz. box couscous (1 1/2 c.)
1 lb. ground beef
1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
kosher salt and black pepper
3 Tbsp. olive oil
6 green onions, sliced
2 medium tomatoes, sliced in 1 in. chunks
1 cucumber, cut into 1/2 moons
3 Tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 c. crumbled feta cheese

Cook couscous according to package directions. Form the beef into 12 small 1/2 inch thick patties. Place patties on griddle over medium high heat; sprinkle with the cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Cook patties about 5 minutes each side. Toss the couscous with the olive oil, green onions, tomatoes, cucumber, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Serve with burgers; sprinkling all with feta cheese before serving.

A great Labor Day meal using the last of your garden veggies!
