Patty Melts
Patty Melts
A classic. Worth the points! You can reduce the points by using a leaner ground beef, but it won't be as juicy.
Blue 11 points
Purple 11 points
Green 11 points
- 8 slices 647 Bread (or other 1 point bread)
- 1 lb 93% lean ground beef
- 4 Tbsp light butter, divided
- 4 slices Sargento Ultra Thin Swiss or Provolone cheese
- 2 large onions
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- salt and pepper to taste
-
In a medium skillet, melt 2 Tbsp butter. Add the sliced onions and cook until golden brown and caramelized. Cook them low and slow. Remove from skillet and drain.
-
In a medium bowl, mix ground beef, salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well and make 4 patties, a little larger than your bread.
-
Fry the hamburgers in the same skillet you used to cook the onions.
-
Remove the patties from the skillet and wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel.
-
Butter the bread. Depending on the size of your skillet, decide how many sandwiches you want to do at a time. Place bread in skillet, butter side down, working quickly, place 1 piece of cheese on bread, 1 hamburger patty, 1/4 of the onions, another slice of cheese and bread, butter side up.
-
Cook the sandwiches like you would grilled cheese, until nice and golden brown.
-
**you can also cook some mushroom and place on the sandwich with the onions if desired**
