Ingredients

  • 1kg lean mince
  • 1 onion
  • 1 zucchini
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 head lettuce
  • 4 tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon of dried mixed herbs or 1 small bunch of parsley
  • 14 slices reduced fat cheese

Method

  1. Cut onion into quaters. Cut zucchini and carrot into 2-3cm pieces.
  2. Shred lettuce. Slice tomatoes.
  3. Add mince, onion, zucchini, carrot and herbs to a food processor. Process on high for 1 minute or until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Using clean hands, take a handful of the mixture and form it into a patty shape. Repeat the process to create 14 patties.
