Italian Style Hamburger

These jazzed up burgers are made with lean ground beef and Mozzarella cheese, along with garlic powder and Italian seasonings.

• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation:

Combine ground beef with seasonings; form into 8 patties, each about 1/4-inch thick. Place cheese slices (might need to cut to fit) in center of 4 of the patties; cover cheese with remaining patties and press edges together. Broil or grill over medium-hot coals, turning once, until done.
