Crafted with lean ground beef, aromatic garlic, and finely chopped onion, these patties are infused with vibrant spices like paprika, cumin, and mustard powder for a smoky, savory kick—all without the need for excessive salt. A touch of fresh parsley, a binding of egg and breadcrumbs, and just enough cold water ensure the patties are moist, flavorful, and tender.

Serve them on a whole grain bun with crisp veggies or pair them with a refreshing salad for a balanced, heart-healthy meal that’s bursting with deliciousness.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef, minced garlic, and finely chopped onion.
Add the paprika, black pepper, ground cumin, and mustard powder to the beef mixture, ensuring even distribution of the spices.
Gently fold in the lightly beaten egg, breadcrumbs, and fresh parsley into the spiced beef mixture.
Add the cold water to help bind the ingredients together and moisten the patties.
Using clean hands, divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape each portion into a patty, ensuring they are about half an inch thick.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the beef patties in the skillet without crowding.
Cook the patties for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
Once cooked, remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute within the patties, ensuring they remain moist and flavorful.
Serve the low-sodium beef patties with your choice of whole grain buns and fresh vegetables or enjoy them with a side of your favorite salad.
