Cooking hamburgers on the grill is a rite of summer. And it's easy to dress up those burgers with fun ingredients like different cheeses, vegetables, salsa - or pesto!

You can make your own pesto for this menu, and if you grow your own basil, that's definitely the cheapest method. Plus there's nothing like this delicious condiment made from the freshest basil possible; it has a spicy depth of flavor that is unbeatable. If you make your own pesto, the cost of the burgers will drop by about 60 cents.

Enjoy this easy menu!
