Stuffed Burgers
8 ounces, 93% or 97% lean ground sirloin
2 T red onion, thinly chopped
1 t fresh basil, finely chopped or ½ t dried
½ t mustard
½ ounce low-fat mozzarella

Place first four ingredients into mixing bowl. Thoroughly mix with wooden spoon or hands. Divide the mixture into half.

Divide the cheese into two portions.

Shape each meat portion into a thin patty. Place cheese into the center. Roll up the meat mixture and form a thick patty.

Depending on what you desire, either place the burgers onto a heated grill or place them underneath an oven broiler. Cook until done to your liking and cheese has melted.
