HEALTHY BEEF BURGERS



Healthy Beef Burgers image

I found a recipe for meatballs for babies that used iron fortified rice cereal instead of bread crumbs and it was very good, so I thought...why not burgers? Then I was inspired to make it even healthier and my picky kids loved the results. Me, I still prefer my old recipe, but hey my kids like it and that is what counts. I am guessing at the amounts, I usually just eyeball it.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices will add flavor and nutrients to your burgers.
  • Don't overmix the meat: Overmixing can make the burgers tough.
  • Form the burgers gently: Use your hands to gently form the burgers, avoiding pressing down too hard.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat: This will help prevent the burgers from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer: The safest way to ensure that your burgers are cooked through is to use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
  • Let the burgers rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the burgers, making them more tender and flavorful.
