• Saute onion for about 3 minutes with a pinch of salt.
• Add mushroom, garlic, black pepper, thyme and tarragon and saute for 7 to 10 minutes, until mushroom is cooked.
• While mushroom is cooking, place olives in food processor and pulse until they are finely chopped (not pureed.)
• Remove from food processor and set aside. (No need to clean it out for the next step.).
• When mushrooms have cooked, add mushroom mixture to the food processor.
• Add all other ingredients except for 1/2 a cup of the breadcrumbs. (Did you hear me? Reserve 1/2 cup of the breadcrumbs, this will give them better texture.)
• Pulse until mostly smooth, but there should still be a little texture.
• Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Add the remaining 1/2 cup breadcrumbs to the burger mixture, along with the chopped olives, and thoroughly combine.
• Divide burger mix into 6 equal pieces.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Form mixture into patties, spray with a little more cooking spray and bake for 15 minutes.
