Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the sliced onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes until the onion begins to soften.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet, cooking for another 5 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender and the onions are caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
Place the low sodium bacon slices on the preheated grill or a separate skillet and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
In a bowl, combine the ground beef, black pepper, and salt-free seasoning blend. Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties.
Grill the beef patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Monterey Jack cheese on each patty, allowing it to melt slightly.
Toast the whole wheat burger buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes until lightly crispy.
Assemble the burgers by placing a leaf of lettuce, a slice of tomato, the cooked patty with cheese, sautéed mushrooms and onions, and a slice of bacon onto each bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium bacon mushroom Jack burger!
