I varied this recipe a little when I made it myself. I put the salt and pepper in the meat and I omitted the green onion cause I don't like them. We add a slice of Roma tomato to each burger as well. I loved it it was delicious. Side note if your like me and don't have a scale I buy the packaged low fat cheese and shred those. That way I know I am getting exactly 1 oz. Enjoy:O)
