Here's a fun way to have a burger with a yummy surprise inside! 

serves 6 ( 8 points +)

• 1-1/2 lbs. lean ground beef ( 93% lean)
• 2 T. Worcestershire sauce
• garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste
• 2 T. Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 Roma tomato, sliced thinly
• 4 oz. fresh mozzarella, sliced thinly into 6 slices
• 6 T. marinara sauce, heated
• fresh baby spinach leaves
• 6 low-cal buns ( 2 points+ each)

In a large bowl, combine beef with Worcestershire, spices and Parmesan cheese. Divide evenly into 12 sections. Press six sections flat. Top with mozzarella and a tomato slice.
Press remaining six beef sections flat. Cover bottom halves of burgers. Press seams together so that cheese is completely enclosed.

Spray a large, nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Cook 4-5 minutes per side, being careful when turning. Serve on spinach topped buns. Spoon 1 T. marinara over the top of each burger.
