INGREDIENTS

6 oz 93% lean ground beef

1 oz part-skim mozzarella cheese

1 whole sprouted grain bun

0.25 cup no-sugar-added marinara sauce

0.5 cup baby arugula

1 tsp avocado oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp dried oregano

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano until just incorporated.

• 2

  Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and flatten them into thin, wide patties.

• 3

  Place the mozzarella cheese in the center of one patty, then top with the second patty and pinch the edges firmly to seal the cheese inside.

• 4

  Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

• 5

  Carefully place the burger in the skillet and sear for 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness.

• 6

  While the burger rests, lightly toast the sprouted grain bun in the same skillet and warm the marinara sauce in a small pan.

• 7

  Layer the baby arugula on the bottom bun, place the stuffed burger on top, spoon over the warm marinara, and finish with the top bun.
