Cooking the Mediterranean Way: The Nourish Blended Burger with Sriracha Mayo

The sneaky Mediterranean upgrade your burger didn't know it needed

As summer heats up, we are continuing our conversation about how the Mediterranean diet supports brain health and this month we’re doing it with a burger.

This recipe comes from a collaboration close to my heart. I had the privilege of working with the Nourish Program at UTHealth School of Public Health — a first-of-its-kind nutrition hub right here in the Texas Medical Center that trains students, healthcare professionals, and community members across Texas and beyond.

Their mission is simple and powerful: to equip people with the real knowledge and hands-on tools to prevent nutrition-related disease. When they cook, there’s intention behind every ingredient — and this burger is a perfect example.
