Sort of a mini Italian meat loaf?

Italian Style Beef Patties

1 Pound high quality ground beef

1-2 teaspoons Garden Gourmet garlic paste (or make your own)

1-2 teaspoons Garden Gourmet basil paste. (I am not sure what else would be equivalent, maybe dry basil?)

1 teaspoon dry oregano

dash of hot pepper flakes

1 teaspoon salt

a few grinds of black pepper

Add the seasonings to the ground beef and mix well. Shape into 2 oval patties or four round patties.

Preheat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, add the patties. Cook about 5-6 minutes on each side depending on the size of the patty.
