Comments: I wasn’t sure I would
like this but decided to give it a try.
The original recipe didn’t use the cheese but I thought it would make everything
stick together better so I added just a light amount of cheese. The original also had the logs resting on a
pressed out, grilled biscuit. I passed
on that. I made these the 1st
time as logs and after tasting them I decided they would be delicious as
burgers so I made them a 2nd time as burgers, adding my favorite
condiments and they were delicious! This
is now my go-to healthy burger. My 3
food testers also loved it both as a log as well as on a bun. One of my testers stopped me and said he
wanted the recipe. He wants to start
making them for himself.
