Recipe Introduction

4 servings

List of Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 red or yellow bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1/2 onion, finely chopped
2 Tablespoons minced carrot
2 Tablespoons minced celery
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups finely chopped mushrooms
3/4 pound lean ground beef (10% or less fat)
1 Tablespoon steak sauce
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste


Recipe

1. In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the oil. Sauté the bell pepper, onion, celery and
garlic until the onion is translucent, 8 - 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms; sauté until the
mushrooms brown and the liquid evaporates, about 8 minutes. Cool to room temperature.

2. Spray the broiler rack with nonstick cooking spray; preheat the broiler. In a medium
bowl, combine the mushroom mixture, beef, steak sauce, salt and pepper. Form 4
hamburgers. Broil the burgers 3" - 4" from heat, 5-7 minutes on each side.
