Junk Food

Who doesn't love junk food? I'll admit, I enjoy it a little too much perhaps, so I'm always looking for ways to make it tasty and more healthy at home. I think both goals were accomplished with these hamburgers the other night!














Swiss Cheeseburgers with Sauteed Mushrooms

Sautee 1-2 onions (depending on size and personal taste) along with a couple of cloves of crushed garlic in some olive oil until tender. Salt and pepper to taste.

Add onions and garlic to ground beef, along with one egg, 2 tbsp flour, salt, pepper, and 1 tpsp Worcestershire sauce. Mix well together and form into patties. Cook on grill pan or grill (or skillet). Add swiss cheese towards end of cooking.

While grilling burgers, sautee sliced mushrooms of your choice in some olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Serve on a whole grain Kaiser roll with baby spinach, sliced tomatoes and topped with mushrooms. On the side: oven fries, baby carrots and sliced cucumbers. Now everyone's happy!
