Breakfast Burger

I don't care what time of day it is when you eat this burger. The bottom line is that you MUST eat this burger. It's killer.


What you'll need:

  • 1 lb 96% Lean Ground Beef
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1/2 White Onion
  • 4 slices Fat Free Sharp Cheddar Cheese
  • 1/4 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • Grill Mates Hamburger Seasoning (or your favorite kind)
  • Lettuce
  • 2 Tomatoes
  • Kaiser Rolls
  • 6 Bacon Slices (low sodium)
Make It:
In a mixing bowl add the ground beef and burger seasoning and a dash of Worcestershire. Mix this together well. Once mixed, make your burger patties. I make 4 from 1 pound of beef.

On the side, roughly chop up the onion. Once chopped, smash the onions onto one side of the burger while keeping the patty in tact. 

This cooks best in a pan as opposed to a grill because of the onions. Heat the pan on high heat with a tsp of butter and let the pan get super hot. Once there, place the burgers in the pan, onion side down. Let the aroma take over--yuuuumm.

Press on the burgers every once in awhile to keep them flat before they ball up. After 6 minutes, flip the burger and repeat until you reach the desired level of done-ness.

In a smaller pan, cook the bacon until well done on med-high heat. Once cooked, place the bacon slices on a plate with a paper towel to drain the excess grease.

In a separate pan cook your eggs over easy. You read that right, cook the eggs as normal with some salt and pepper. 

After you determine your burgers are done, place the cheese over the top of the burger and put a lid on it and let the cheese melt. This should take all of 45 seconds.

Take your burgers off the heat and put them on the bun, onion side down, layer the egg on top of the burger and then top with lettuce and tomato. Enjoy that bad boy.

Optional: Add Pesto Mayo!

B.L.T. with Pesto Mayo

This is awesome. Thank you, Jesse, for this delicious lunch!

What you'll need:

  • 1lb Bacon
  • 2 Tomatoes
  • 6 Slices Whole Wheat Bread
  • Lettuce


Pesto Mayo

  • 4tbls Light Mayo
  • 10 Fresh Basil Leaves
  • 3 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Garlic Clove
  • 1 Pinch Salt and Pepper


In a food processor, add of the the ingredients for the Pesto Mayo and blend until smooth. Refrigerate until we need to use it.

Cook bacon until completely browned on med-high heat. Once cooked, place on a plate with a paper towel to drain some of the grease off the bacon. Then, lightly toast the bread. After toasted, lightly spread one slice of bread with the pesto mayo and then add the lettuce, sliced tomato and bacon.
