Private Selection Moroccan Burger with Mint-Pepper Glaze

Have you been to Kroger to try the Private Selection brand yet? I have and I am all about saving money while still having flavor. I love their Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, even though I should not be eating Ice Cream. I am not a fan of hambuger but I thought I would share this recipe with you anyways. You can find other recipes from Kroger here.
