INGREDIENTS

6 oz Ground beef (93% lean)

1 piece Part-skim mozzarella string cheese

0 tbsp Almond flour

1 tbsp Liquid egg whites

0.5 whole Sprouted grain bun

2 tbsp No-sugar-added marinara sauce

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

0.25 tsp Onion powder

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0 tsp Avocado oil

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a bowl, combine the ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper, then form into a single thick patty.

• 2

  Cut the mozzarella string cheese in half to create two shorter sticks.

• 3

  Dip each cheese piece into the liquid egg whites, then roll in almond flour until evenly coated.

• 4

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

• 5

  Place the beef patty in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness.

• 6

  During the last 2 minutes of cooking the beef, add the breaded mozzarella sticks to the same pan, turning frequently until the coating is golden and the cheese is soft.

• 7

  Toast the sprouted grain bun in a separate pan or toaster until lightly browned.

• 8

  Spread the marinara sauce on the bottom bun, place the beef patty on top, followed by the crispy mozzarella sticks, and close the burger.
