Who says burgers are bad for you??? OBVIOUSLY people who have not had the pleasure of a Tommy Burger :) Fire up your taste buds and WITHOUT guilt because this is how I make my Tommy Burger...
1 GRASS FED ORGANIC beef patty.
2 slices of whole wheat bread or Jewish Rhy
2 or 3 Greek Olives, pitted
A little bit of crumbled feta cheese - low fat
1 tomato slice
1 red onion slice - raw
some green spinach leaves - raw
optional tbsp of extra virgin olive oil soaked in the bread
1 George Foreman Grill
I like to lightly toast the two slices of bread in a toaster and I like my burger medium rare. I use my handy dandy george forman grill to cook my burger in because what little fat there is in lean meat will drip off. All of the ingredients are optional but if you keep them all you are getting a nice colorful picture perfect blend of various nutrients (I.E. carbs, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals). I use no seasonings. The veggies I use provides more than enough flavor, believe me! The flavor delightfully explodes in your mouth! All of those various veggies compliment each other very nicely. It's what food-gasms are made of and best of all you don't have to feel guilty eating it :-) If your goal is weight loss then skip the extra virgin olive oil. Just make sure you eat something else in one of your other 5 - 6 meals that day with a source of un saturated healthy fat.
My vegetarian friends can substitute the lean beef patty with a veggie patty of their choosing. The combination of veggies I choose for my Tommy Burger will make any meat or meat less filling a plethora of flavor :)
