Serves: 4
Ingredients
1 lb. of lean ground beef - substitute with Boca Vegan Burgers if you prefer.
1 Tsp salt
1 Tsp pepper
10 second spray of olive oil
12 ounces of sliced baby bella mushrooms
4 ounces of provolone cheese, sliced.
4 ounces of cheddar cheese, sliced
2 cups fresh arugula
½ lemon, juiced
10 second spray of olive oil
4 whole wheat buns
Mustard Aioli
1½ Tbsp dijon mustard
1 large egg yolk
2 Tsp. fresh lemon juice
10 second spray of olive oil
2 Tbsp whole grain mustard
1 Tbsp horseradish
a pinch of salt and pepper
Instructions
Preheat the outdoor grill to medium-high.
Add ground beef to large bowl and season with salt and pepper.
Add mushrooms to a large skillet over medium heat. Mist olive oil for 10 seconds and stir to coat. Cook 15 minutes or until the mushrooms are soft, darkened and released their juices. Then add salt an pepper to taste. Turn off heat and keep warm.
Whisk together dijon mustard, egg yolk and lemon juice in a small bowl until combined. Slowly mist in olive oil while whisking until the mixture emulsifies and comes together. Whisk in whole grain mustard and horseradish, season with salt and pepper to taste.
Toss the fresh arugula with lemon juice and a mist of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Grill the burgers untl they reach your desired doneness. For medium, I cook mine about 3-4 minutes per side but it does depend on how thick you like your burgers. Top each burger with the cheeses during the last 1-2 minutes of cooking.
To assemble burgers, spread aioli on buns, top with burger, mushrooms and a handful of arugula.
