Make the spread: Stir feta cheese

and parsley together in a small bowl. Set aside until needed.
Make the burgers: Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Cut bell pepper in half from top to bottom; remove stem

and ribs. Place pepper onto the prepared baking sheet with the cut sides facing down.
Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin has blackened and blistered
about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer pepper halves to a paper bag to cool and steam
about 5 minutes.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat
and lightly oil the grate.
Peel and discard bell pepper skin. Dice flesh and place into a large bowl.
Add ground beef
spinach
feta
bread crumbs
onion
egg
garlic
mint

and pepper; mix gently with your hands until evenly combined. Form meat mixture into four 4 1/2-inch-diameter patties.
Cook on the preheated grill until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness
about 4 minutes per side for medium. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
