This recipe can be made by substituting lean ground turkey or veggie burger patty. Cook veggie patty according to package instructions and omit cilantro and scallions. I found this in Better Homes and Gardens magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for safe keeping.
Ingredients:
1 100% whole wheat sandwich thins roll
1/4 lb 96% lean ground sirloin
1 teaspoon grill seasoning
1 teaspoon fresh cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon chopped scallion
1/2 slice reduced fat monterey jack pepper cheese
2 teaspoons ketchup
hot sauce
sliced tomato
sliced red onion
avocado
red leaf lettuce
Directions:
1. Preheat grill or nonstick skillet to medium-high.
2. In a small bowl, combine ground sirloin, seasoning, cilantro and scallions and form into a patty about 1/2 -inch thick. Grill patty 3-4 minutes each side.
3. At the last minute of cooking, top patty with pepper jack cheese. Spread one side of the roll with ketchup and sprinkle hot sauce to taste. Top patty with sliced tomato, onion, avocado and lettuce.
