Just 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs and a small amount of mayo are all it takes to bind these mushroom and beef patties together. The minced mushrooms add welcome earthy flavour while keeping the lean beef moist as the patties cook, plus they lighten the mix for a super tender and juicy burger. Double the recipe so you have leftover cooked patties. Crumble a cooked patty into a lettuce leaf and sprinkle with reduced-sodium soy sauce or a splash of ponzu sauce and top with thinly sliced cucumber and sliced green onions for an easy Asian-style lettuce wrap.
