INGREDIENTS

4 oz grass-fed ground beef (93% lean)

2 slice nitrate-free turkey bacon

1 whole part-skim mozzarella string cheese

0 whole sprouted grain burger bun

1 leaf butter lettuce

2 slice tomato

0 tsp avocado oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp yellow mustard

PREPARATION

• 1

  Cut the mozzarella string cheese in half crosswise and then lengthwise to create four small sticks, then lightly press them flat.

• 2

  Season the ground beef with sea salt and black pepper, then form into a wide, thin patty.

• 3

  Heat avocado oil in a high-quality non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

• 4

  Add the turkey bacon to the skillet and cook until crisp, then remove and set aside on a paper towel.

• 5

  In the same skillet, sear the beef patty for approximately 3-4 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness.

• 6

  During the final 2 minutes of the beef cooking, place the mozzarella sticks directly onto the skillet surface, flipping once the bottom is golden and crispy.

• 7

  Remove the beef and cheese from the pan and quickly toast the sprouted grain bun face-down for 30 seconds until warm.

• 8

  Assemble the burger by spreading mustard on the bottom bun, followed by the lettuce, tomato, beef patty, crispy mozzarella sticks, and turkey bacon.
