No, I'm not against buying frozen food I just prefer food that I make on my own, but for this time where all I had in the fridge was beer, some tomatoes, cheese and lettuce, I have open my freezer and check out what I have there. In my case I have some soy hamburgers, but you can use regular hamburger if you don't like this, or even a steak if you are lucky enough to have one.

This recipe is awesome for you to kill your interior fat kid that is dying for a hamburger but you don't wanna give up on your diet. So why not take some calories out of the way and make it without the bread. Don't worry you will love it and feel good after eat a hamburger.
