  • 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 carrot
  • 2 radishes
  • 4 leaves lettuce

Preparation Instructions

Heat an outdoor grill over medium-high heat.

Whisk together the mustard, Worcestershire sauce and most of the salt. Gently fold the ground meat into the mustard and then into 4-ounce patties. Take care not to mash the meat too hard and plan to see clumps of the mustard throughout.

Place the patties on the grill and prepare the remaining ingredients. Wash & dry the lettuce and sprouts. Shred the carrots and radishes. Mince the fresh herbs and whisk into the mayonnaise & Greek yogurt. Season with salt & pepper to taste.

Pile the veggies into the lettuce leaves. Top with the grilled burgers and a dollop of the herb sauce. Wrap up.

If burgers need buns in your world, try a tasty whole-grain variety.
