Patty savvy: With a mere 12 minutes of prep time and more meat for fewer calories, a homemade burger can't be beat. Ours uses extra-lean ground beef; fast food makers go for cheaper, fattier grinds. And our patty is sandwiched between a whole-wheat bun for a fiber hit. Ingredients:
3/4 lb extra-lean ground beef (or bison) |
2 tbsp finely chopped onion |
2 tbsp chili sauce |
1 tsp dijon mustard |
4 slices (about 3/4 oz each) reduced-fat cheddar |
4 whole-wheat hamburger buns |
lettuce and tomato slices |
Directions:
1. Mix first 4 ingredients. Form mixture into four 1-inch-thick patties. Broil 5 to 7 minutes on each side for medium to well-done burgers. Top each burger with a cheese slice right before removing from the oven. Transfer burgers onto buns, top with lettuce and tomato and serve.
