Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices Whole wheat sandwich bread
- 200 grams Lean ground beef (90% lean)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Tomato
- 0.5 medium Cucumber
- 4 large leaves Lettuce leaves
- 2 tablespoons Mustard
- 2 tablespoons Low-fat mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil spray
Instructions
Start by preparing the vegetables: slice the tomato into thin slices and the cucumber into thin rounds. Wash the lettuce and pat dry with a paper towel. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine lean ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix well using your hands or a fork until thoroughly combined.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray with olive oil spray.
Divide the beef mixture into 2 equal portions and shape them into thin patties, roughly the same size as a slice of bread.
Place the patties in the preheated skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through.
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the whole wheat bread slices using a toaster or an oven until they are golden brown and crisp.
In a small bowl, mix together the mustard and low-fat mayonnaise. Spread this mixture evenly on one side of each toasted bread slice.
To assemble each club sandwich: place a lettuce leaf on one slice of the prepared bread, add one beef patty, a few slices of tomato, and cucumber. Top with another bread slice (with mustard-mayo spread), repeat with more layers as desired, and finish with a final piece of bread.
Secure each sandwich with toothpicks at each corner, if necessary, to keep them together.
Slice each sandwich diagonally into two triangles and serve immediately.
