Mushroom Onion Cheeseburger (Gluten-Free/Dairy-Free)

Mushroom Onion Cheeseburger!

Notice I used 2 large portobello mushroom caps instead of refined white hamburger buns.

Recipe:

In a food processor, combine the following:

• 12 oz of extra lean ground chicken
• 2 TBSP of Organic Gluten-Free Whole Ground Golden Flaxseed Meal
• 1/2 cup of white onion chopped
• 1/4 cup of Daiya Cheese Shreds
• Salt-free seasoning of your choice, pepper, minced garlic

Process the ingredients. Make 4 patties. Preheat your non-stick skillet, which you can coat with Pam non-stick cooking spray.

• grill the 4 patties (flip to ensure both sides are cooked). Cut the center to ensure it is fully cooked.

The "buns": grill 2 large portobello mushroom caps but remove the stems first. (I used my Cuisinart Griddler, which I sprayed with Pam non-stick cooking spray)
