Cheeseburgers

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ pounds Lean ground beef
Salt
Brown bouquet sauce (opt)
Water (optional)
6 Hamburger buns
6 slices Cheese

Directions

1. Form beef into 6 patties about ½-inch thick. 2. Sprinkle with salt and brush patties with a 1-to-1 mixture of brown bouquet sauce and water, if a deep brown color is desired. 3. Arrange patties in a circle in a paper towel-lined, shallow, heat resistant, non-metallic baking dish. Do not place any patties in the center of the circle.

Heat, covered with paper toweling, in Microwave Oven 5 minutes. Turn patties over. 4. Brush again with brown bouquet mixture if desired.

5. Heat, uncovered, an additional minute. Burgers will be rare. Heat an additional 1 to 2 minutes for medium or well-done. 6. Place 1 patty on each hamburger bun and top each hamburger with a slice of cheese. Arrange hamburgers on a heat-resistant non-metallic serving platter and heat, uncovered, in Microwave Oven 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
