In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, low sodium Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure the burgers remain tender.
Divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape them into patties about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add sliced cremini mushrooms and sauté until they are golden brown and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet or on a preheated grill, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil if needed and cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) for well-done.
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty and cover the skillet with a lid to melt the cheese.
Toast the whole wheat buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster, if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of the bun, followed by the cheeseburger patty, sautéed mushrooms, and a slice of tomato. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious low sodium mushroom Swiss hamburger!
