George Foreman’s Power Burger
A flavorful hamburger that we think tastes even better than its all-meat
cousin! It pays to eat meals that minimize meat. To reduce saturated fat in a
typical burger, you can cut back on the amount of meat and make up for it
with plant-based ingredients. Bread crumbs and chopped vegetables have
been added in this recipe. You could also try cooked rice, other grains or
cereal. In addition, choose whole wheat buns; they typically contain one less
fat gram than regular or even reduced-calorie buns.
If you settle for nothing less than a cheeseburger, Swiss cheese is 1 gram
lower in fat than Cheddar, American or Monterey Jack with 8 grams of fat
versus 9 in each ounce of cheese. However, reduced fat cheese like Cheddar
or Swiss contain half the fat with 4 grams per ounce. Mustard contains 1
gram of fat per tablespoon versus a whopping 11 grams of fat in a tablespoon
of mayonnaise.
Top your burger in a healthful style with dark, leafy green lettuce, shredded
cabbage, fresh cilantro, basil or spinach.
1/4 cup chopped vegetables such as yellow onions, greens onions, zucchini,
parsley (can be sauteed)
1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
