Divide the beef into 4 equal sized rounds and shape into patties. Season the burgers on both sides with the salt and pepper.

Top peppers with about 2 tablespoons of feta then 2 or 3 cucumber slices and a lettuce leaf. Spread the remaining 2 tablespoons yogurt sauce on bun tops and place on burger.
