INGREDIENTS

6 oz 93% lean ground beef

0 slice sharp cheddar cheese

1 whole whole wheat burger bun

2 tbsp plain nonfat Greek yogurt

1 tsp yellow mustard

1 tsp no sugar added ketchup

1 tbsp finely diced dill pickles

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 leaf romaine lettuce

2 slice tomato

2 slice red onion

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, yellow mustard, ketchup, diced pickles, and garlic powder to create the secret sauce.

• 2

  Divide the ground beef into a single 6-ounce portion and form it into a round patty about half an inch thick.

• 3

  Season both sides of the beef patty evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.

• 4

  Heat a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and sear the patty for 4 to 5 minutes on the first side.

• 5

  Flip the burger and immediately place the cheddar cheese slice on top; cover the pan for the remaining 3 to 4 minutes of cooking to melt the cheese.

• 6

  While the beef rests, lightly toast the whole wheat bun in the skillet or a toaster until the edges are golden.

• 7

  Spread the secret sauce generously on the bottom bun, then layer the romaine lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion.

• 8

  Place the cheesy beef patty on top of the vegetables and close the burger with the top bun.
