Kraft Kitchens Tips

Makeover - How We Did It

We took a favorite burger and made it over by preparing it with extra-lean ground beef, MIRACLE WHIP Light Dressing and KRAFT 2% Milk Singles instead of the regular products. These small changes save you 80 calories and 11g of total fat, including 4g of saturated fat, per serving.

Use Your Grill

Instead of cooking the patties in the skillet, grill them on medium-high heat 5 to 6 min. on each side or until done (160°F). Top with 2% Milk Singles; grill 1 min. or until melted. Serve as directed.

Very dry and no flavor.

I really like this recipe. The Miracle Whip adds some zip and moisture to the lean beef. I would have given it 5 stars, but it is still a tad dry for our taste using the extra lean beef.

Delicious, they were a tad bit different than a regular old hamburger, which is great! Also great that they're healthy.
