Bunless Cheddar Burger
/
Cheese! Glorious Cheese! Remember those commercials? I posted a clip from YouTube at the bottom of this post so you can live it again and again.
Side note: The video description says the commercial came out in 1987. Wow. Now I feel old!
Anyhoo- Since we've gone off bread and sugar and anything that makes life worth living, I decided to make burgers. Bunless burgers. Waah, waah waaaaahhh!
Actually, they were really good. It's not the bun that makes the burger folks. Just wrap that bad boy up in some lettuce and move on. It's really good.
I mixed some fresh herbs and garlic and of course cheese and bam! It was a dang good burger if I say so myself.
What you'll need:
1lb LEAN ground beef
1 egg
2 cloves mince garlic
1 tbsp onion powder
5 basil leaves
3 tbsp grated or shredded parmesan cheese
A few slices of SUPER SHARP cheddar
Your fixins' we topped our with a beautiful locally grown tomato and some Marie's Yogurt Blue Cheese Dressing purchased on the cheap at Publix.
Fire up your grill and let's get to business of making burgers.
Combine your first six ingredients in a bowl and mix with your hands.
Place on your grill. I used our George Foreman Grill with removable plates. I love George.
Once your burgers have reached their (well your) desired cooking temperature place your cheese slices across like an x and let melt a little.
Top with all your favorites and wrap in lettuce.
Look! Burgers even excite those with no teeth to eat them!
