From Hot Off The Grill by JoAnna M. Lund
Prep: 10 min, Cook: 10 min.
- 11 ounces extra-lean ground sirloin beef or turkey breast
- 1 cup finely chopped fresh spinach leaves
- 1/3 cup dried fine breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 ounce pimiento pieces in a jar, chopped and undrained
- 2 Tbs. plus 2 tsp. Dijon mustard
- 4 slices reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
- 4 small hamburger buns
Plug in and generously spray both sides of a double-sided electric contact grill with olive-oil flavored cooking spray and preheat for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine meat, spinach, breadcrumbs, onions, undrained pimiento, and mustard. Using a 1/2 cup measuring cup as a guide, form into burgers. Evenly arrange burgers on prepared grill. Close lid and grill for 8-9 minutes. For each sandwich, place a burger on a hamburger bun bottom, arrange one slice mozzarella cheese over burger, and place bun top over all.
