Ingredients

• 12 ounces Lean ground beef (93% lean)
• 2 pieces Whole wheat hamburger buns
• 2 slices Turkey bacon
• 4 slices Low-fat cheddar cheese slices
• 2 leaves Lettuce
• 4 slices Tomato
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a grill or stovetop griddle over medium heat.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Mix gently until ingredients are just combined.

Step 3

Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape them into thin patties, about 4 inches in diameter.

Step 4

Place the turkey bacon slices on the preheated grill or griddle and cook until crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the bacon and set aside.

Step 5

Using the same grill or griddle, cook the beef patties. Grill each side for about 3 minutes for medium doneness or until your desired level is reached.

Step 6

Place a slice of cheese on each beef patty during the last minute of cooking, ensuring it melts slightly.

Step 7

Toast the whole wheat buns on the grill for about 1 minute, cut side down, until just golden.

Step 8

Assemble the cheeseburger by spreading a tablespoon of Dijon mustard on each bun half.

Step 9

Layer with lettuce, two tomato slices, a beef patty with melted cheese, and then a slice of turkey bacon.

Step 10

Repeat with another layer made of remaining beef patty and cheese slice, a tomato slice, and finally the top bun.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy your healthier, lower-fat version of a double cheeseburger!
