Alternate
Top the burgers with grilled onions or a mixture of grilled onions and grilled sweet red or yellow peppers. For a delicious horseradish sauce, combine 1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt, 1 tablespoon snipped fresh dill, 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish and 1 teaspoon sweet pickle relish. Add a dollop to the burgers just before serving. Beef-and-Tofu Burgers: Replace the mushrooms with 1/2 cup reduced-fat silken (soft) tofu, drained and patted dry with paper towels. Combine with the onions, Worcestershire sauce and hot-pepper sauce in the bowl. Beef-and-Bulgur Burgers: Replace the mushrooms with 1/2 cup cooked and cooled bulgur. Combine with the onions, Worcestershire sauce and hot-pepper sauce in the bowl.

Directions

1.
Coat a medium no-stick skillet with no-stick spray and warm over medium heat. Add the onions and mushrooms. Cook, stirring frequently, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are lightly browned. Place in a medium bowl and set aside to cool.
2.
Stir in the parsley or thyme, Worcestershire sauce and hot-pepper sauce. Add the beef and mix quickly with your hands to combine. Shape into 4 burgers, 3/4" thick.
3.
Coat an unheated grill rack with no-stick spray. Light the grill according to the manufacturer's directions. Place the rack on the grill.
4.
Place the burgers on the rack and grill about 6" from the heat for 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through. Serve on the rolls with the lettuce (if using) and tomatoes (if using).
