Ingredients

  • 2 slice(s) bread, 100% whole-wheat, crusts removed, torn into pieces
  • 1/3 cup(s) blueberries, frozen, thawed, or fresh
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar, balsamic
  • 2 teaspoon mustard, dijon-style
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 clove(s) garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • pepper, black ground, to taste
  • 12 ounce(s) beef, lean ground, 90%-lean
 

Preparation

1. Place bread in a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Transfer to a large bowl. (No need to wash the workbowl.)

2. Add blueberries, vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire, garlic, salt and pepper to the food processor; process until pureed.
 
3. Scrape into the bowl with the breadcrumbs. Add ground beef and mix well with a potato masher. Divide the mixture into four equal portions; form into 1/2-inch-thick patties, about 4 inches in diameter.
4. Meanwhile, preheat broiler or heat an indoor or outdoor grill to medium-high. If using the broiler, coat a broiler pan with cooking spray. If using a grill, oil the grill rack by rubbing it with an oil-soaked paper towel.
 
5. Cook patties until browned and no longer pink in the center, 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted in the center should register 160°F. Serve immediately, with or without rolls and toppings.
