I don't mind doing the baking part for its entirety but how many eggs per pound of burger?

These are so good! My children love them and it's a super easy dish to make!

I got this recipe originally from Carbohydrate Addicts Cookbook, but I tweaked it a bit and I think it comes out much better.

8 oz. ground beef, turkey, or pork
4 oz. cheese cubed (we've used both chedder and pepperjack)
2 tbsp. chopped onions (or 1 tbsp. of dried onion flakes)
1tbsp. almond flour (ground up almonds...you can make this you don't have to buy it!)

Now I season with different seasonings depending on how spicy we want it that night. You can use just garlic salt (or powder if you're cutting salt), steak seasoning, oregano, emeril's essence, really anything.

Preheat oven to 325F. Mix the meat with seasonings, almond flour, and onion (I added the almond flour as the original recipe was a little crumbly, it also had soy sauce in it which I don't care for. The flour made them turn out perfectly!) Form meat around each cheese cube into a ball about the size of a golf ball. ( You can skillet fry these, but I suggest baking them as it comes out alot better. ) Place on a lightly greased baking pan (spray with olive oil or pam). Bake for about 30 minutes. This makes about 8 meatballs, you can adjust the recipe to make more as you like. Don't worry about the seasonings, just experiment and you'll get something great!

Hope you like them!

These sound great! I think I'll make them this week!

I made these this weekend for a snack for work and they turned out really really good.

1 lb. hamburger
1/2 pkg meatloaf seasoning
1 egg white (should be the consistancy of meatloaf, if its too wet, add some parmesan cheese)
cubes of pepperjack cheese (can use cheddar)

mix all the ingred. together except for pepperjack. pat out into patties and put a cube of cheese in the center. Fold up around cheese to form meatballs. Brown in skillet and bake in 350 oven till cooked through. (about 15 min. Very good for a meal or a snack.

Can't wait to try these! They sound GREAT!

This sounds good. Are they large enough to make a meal out of them, or just a bite-size snack? What else do you serve with them?

Bacon-Stuffed Burgers
Yield: 8 servings

4 slices bacon
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1 can mushroom pieces, drained and finely chopped
1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound bulk pork sausage
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoon steak sauce

Cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon and discard all but 2 t ablespoons drippings. Sauté onion in drippings until tender. Crumble bacon: add with mushrooms to skillet and set aside.

Meanwhile, combine beef, pork, cheese, pepper, garlic powder and steak sauce in a large bowl. Shape into 16 patties. Divide bacon mixture and place over eight of the patties. Place remaining patties on top and press edges tightly to seal. Grill over medium coals until well-done (pork sausage in burgers requires thorough cooking).

Serve on buns, with lettuce if desired.

Yield: 8 servings.

do you have to use the pork? is it essential to the taste?

DH is spoiling me today with these gorgeous, yummalicious burgers. I thought I would share the recipe. He really just threw stuff together, but I can piece it together enough for a recipe.

2 lbs hamburger
chopped onions
shredded cheese
packet of taco seasoning
packet of enchilada seasoning
cheese slices
chopped tomato
avocado
lime juice

Here are his instructions:
Put hamburger in a bowl. Throw in 1/4-1/2 cup chopped onion, or less if you desire. Up to you. Add a handful of shredded cheese, packet of taco seasoning and packet of enchilada seasoning (don't add the water). Squish it all up and make burgers (6-8 burgers.) While they're cooking...

Take 1 avocado and cut it up and slightly smash it. Throw in chopped tomatoes, more chopped onion and some squirts of lime juice (basically making a guacamole).

When burgers are almost done, add a slice of cheese to them (if you like cheeseburgers) and top with a couple spoonfuls of the 'guacamole'.

Enjoy!
(I'll have to come back and post the carb/fiber count for ya.)

Hmmmm....sounds good. Thanks. New hamburger recipes are always welcome.

I am trying this recipe tonight. I found it on Atkin's webpage and it sounds absolutely wonderful. They will be a nice change from the same 'ol cheeseburger and will go great with a salad. Atkin's reccommends a cucumber salad, but I am having a regular one.

1 lb ground beef
1 green onion chopped
1/2 cup fresh chopped spinach
1/4 chopped tomato
1/4 crumbled feta cheese
1.5 tsp chopped fresh dill
salt and pepper to taste

Combine all ingredients and form into two patties. Grill or pan fry over medium high heat for 6 minutes on each side for medium doneness.

Makes 2 servings.

Can you please add the link to the webpage, devilchild? Thank you.

Somewhere there is a link for 101 ways to make a burger as well, just can't seem to find it right now. We usually make ours with blue cheese crumbles when we want something different.

Haven't tried it with Feta cheese yet, but definitely sounds yummy.

This is the link to the actual page for the recipe.

One of the cooks at a restaurant I used to wait tables at made something called the "black and blue burger". This is my version... with no bun, of course.

Coat your burger patties (both sides) in cajun seasoning. Most kinds I've bought aren't spicy enough, so I combine them with some powdered cayenne pepper.

Cook the burgers (preferably on a barbecue), and at the very end, top them with fresh blue cheese crumbles. Cover them on the grill and let the cheese melt.

If you'd like, you can also top them with carmelized onions (just slice some onions and pan sautee them with a bit of olive oil). I also like to make a sauce out of sour cream, horseradish, and minced garlic to drizzle on top.

Be careful with the carb count on the sour cream and onions... but even with those, this is pretty low. Let me know what you think!
