Outside-In Cheeseburger Patty

"We've boldly placed Laughing Cow wedges where they've never been placed before. We're adventurous like that."

This recipe has very few ingredients, but tastes like a gourmet burger! I have to admit, I was a little nervous about making my teenagers try it, because putting a big wedge of Laughing Cow cheese in the middle, seemed a little odd. Intriguing to me, but gross to teenagers. So I let them eat left overs last night and I prepared the Outside-In Cheeseburgers for my husband and I.

The preparation work was minimal and took no time at all to put it together...which is my kind of recipe! The ooooey gooey cheese in the middle was amazing! I, without a doubt, will be placing a wedge of this glorious cheese in the middle of every burger I make! Simply scrumptious!

The recipe called for the original flavor of the LC cheese, but I only had the garlic and herb. OMG, yum! It went very well with the garlic and onion that I put into the burger. I ate it alone, without a bun with some broiled asparagus on the side. (Another favorite of mine--simply spray with cooking spray, top with season salt from Tastefullysimple.com and broil until crispy! YUM!)

Their suggestion in the cookbook is to place between two giant leaves of lettuce...I will do that next time! I love lettuce wraps!
