Spiced Mini Burgers with Couscous Salad

Burgers again, but this time with lamb! Everything was delicious - common theme around here :) I will say that next time I will cook the lamb in the skillet, the foreman dried out the burgers a little. I did find a solution here: greek yogurt, dill and red wine vinegar. Yum! However, I think next time we'll try adding a little egg and Worcestershire sauce to bump up the moist factor. For the couscous we decided to go with a Parmesan flavor to make sure we weren't gypped in that category. All in all, it was a well rounded meal.
We chose to serve it in bowls and aside from the couscous, we didn't have a main carb (pita bread, roll, etc.). You don't need it! The flavors with the lamb and cucumber are just enough! 
The recipe suggests using hummus but we left it out entirely, use your discretion!
