INGREDIENTS

7 oz ground beef (93% lean)

0.5 oz blue cheese crumbles

1 tbsp buffalo sauce

0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 large romaine lettuce leaf

0.5 cup celery sticks

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a medium bowl, combine the lean ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper, mixing gently to avoid overworking the meat.

• 2

  Shape the beef into one consistent patty approximately 1-inch thick.

• 3

  Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with a mist of oil if desired.

• 4

  Place the patty in the hot pan and sear for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your preferred level of doneness.

• 5

  During the last minute of cooking, brush the top of the burger with the buffalo sauce and sprinkle with the blue cheese crumbles.

• 6

  Cover the pan with a lid for 30 seconds to allow the cheese to soften and the flavors to meld.

• 7

  In a small ramekin, stir together the Greek yogurt and a dash of extra buffalo sauce to create a cooling, high-protein dipping sauce.

• 8

  Place the burger inside the large romaine lettuce leaf and serve immediately with fresh celery sticks on the side for a satisfying crunch.
