The Best Summer Burger

1 egg
1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup oats
1/3 cup diced onion
1/2 cup chopped spinach
2 Tbsp reduced-fat shredded Mexican-blend cheese
4 whole-grain buns
Salt and pepper to taste

1. In a large bowl, whisk the egg. Add everything else and mix--your hands are the best tool--until well blended.

2. Form the meat into four patties. Place the burgers on a grill pan or nonstick skillet that's heated over medium high.

3. Cook for 6 minutes per side or to the desired level of doneness.

Makes 4 servings. (Wrap any extra burgers in plastic and freeze them for later.)
