I found this DELICIOUS low cal recipe today on :

http://www.fatsecret.com/recipes/cheese-and-vegetable-stuffed-burgers/Default.aspx

It came out SO delicious I couldn't not share. This will be a new fav. in my home! The nutrition facts are listed in the link I posted!! :flowerforyou:

3/4 slice cheddar cheese, low fat
1 tbsp parsley
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp seasoned salt
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 cup pieces or slices mushrooms
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 lb ground sirloin


Thoroughly combine ground beef, salt, garlic, pepper, and soy sauce.
Divide mixture into 8 equal patties (patties should be thin).
Combine remaining ingredients; divide evenly atop 4 patties.
Place another patty on top of each; seal edges (extra burgers for other meals may be refrigerated at this point until ready to cook).
Cook on a grill, or under your stove’s broiler, until done.
Finally, top with cheese; when cheese has melted, the burger is ready to serve. As a serving suggestion, “make it a combo meal” by serving with cauliflower, mashed potatoes, a low-glycemic steamed veggie, such as asparagus, and a diet non-caffeinated beverage (could be H2O).
Note: feel free to experiment with different burger seasonings, stuffings, and types of cheese, be as creative as you like!
Note 2: the interesting thing about stuffed burgers is that some ingredients are "stuffed" into the middle of the burger, so as these ingredients cook, they season the meat and contribute to its juiciness.

    Check out my DIary for today to see what bread I used and all the condiments/ veggies I used. I only hit 306 calories! Compared to a Five Guys Burger that I had last week that was almost 800, I would go for this ANY time!

    Not sure, But I'll be trying it with some ground chicken this week! I am excited to try it out with a different meat, maybe some red pepper too.
