Ingredients for the burger:
2 whole wheat bread slices( whole foods brand is my favorite )
4 oz of 10% lean ground beef
1 slice of fat free cheddar cheese
2 shallots sliced
1 handfull of fresh spinach
1 teaspoon of french Dijon mustard ( grey pupon is the best )
1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper
Ingredients for the spinach dressing:
1 oz of Greek yogurt 2 % ( fage is awesome )
1 tablespoon of rice vinegar
1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 teaspoon of agave syrup
1 squeeze of lemon juice
Salt and black pepper
- First prepare the dressing for the spinach salad topping since it has to chill for at least 30 mn. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and chill in the fridge.
In the mean time put a nonstick pan on medium high heat, and prepare your patty with the ground beef. Shape it round, sprinkle a little salt and black pepper, and cook in the Pan 2 mns each side, (once you flip the patty add the slice of fat free cheddar On top ) and reserve. In another pan cook the sliced shallots, after coating the Pan with a light spray of canola oil, adding a little salt and pepper .after 4 mns , add the balsamic vinegar to the shallots and let reduce for 2 mns. Take off the heat.Take a handful of fresh spinach and cut it in a ribbon shape. Mix in a new bowl with a little bit of dressing. Toast the 2 slices of whole wheat bread , and start building the awesomeness !!! First spread a little french Dijon mustard on the first toast, add the hot patty, top with the shallots, add the spinach and the toast. And Enjoy the Juicy Goodness !!
