Outside In Cheeseburger Patty
Outside-In Cheeseburger Patty (From Hungry Girl.com)
PER SERVING (1 patty): 179 calories, 6.5g fat, 502mg sodium, 1.5g carbs, 0g fiber, 1g sugars, 26.5g protein -- POINTS® value 4*
Is it offensive that we stuffed something labeled "Laughing Cow" inside a ball of beef? Perhaps... but it's DELICIOUS!
Ingredients:
4 oz. raw extra-lean ground beef
1 wedge The Laughing Cow Light Original Swiss cheese, room temperature
1/8 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. onion powder
1/8 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
dash salt, or more to taste
dash black pepper, or more to taste
Directions:
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except the cheese. Add as much salt and pepper as you like. Knead mixture by hand until integrated. Form into a ball and, using your thumb, make a large, hollow indentation in the ball (past the center but not all the way through). Fill the hole with cheese and squeeze the meat to seal, making sure no cheese is exposed. Flatten slightly into a thick patty.
Bring a pan misted with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove. (Use a grill pan if you've got one.) Place patty in the pan, cover, and cook for 4 - 7 minutes per side, depending on how well done you like your burger. Heads Up: Don't press on the patty with your spatula (your burger might ooze cheese!).
Serve however you like your burger... We like ours with ketchup and pickles between giant leaves of lettuce!
MAKES 1 SERVING

HG has daily emails with all kinds of tip and recipes etc. They also have two cookbooks, the new one is 200 recipes all under 200 calories. Lots of yummy substitutes and healthy replacements for the things that we ate post-op.
I love HG!

I got this recipe in my email the other day too and I thought it sounded really good. I love laughing cow cheese and have used it in several recipes. Thanks for posting this one.
