Ingredients
- 3/4 lb ground beef (85% lean)
- 3/4 lb broccoli florets
- 2 oz cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 1/4 tbsp mayonnaise
- 3/4 tbsp yellow mustard
- 3/4 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 3, optional for toddler/adults who want them hamburger buns
Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)
- Heat the oven to 425°F for 10 minutes, until fully preheated.
- Cut the broccoli into bite-size florets, keeping similarly sized pieces together so they roast evenly.
- Toss the broccoli with olive oil, garlic powder, 1/4 tsp salt, and pepper on a rimmed baking sheet until lightly coated.
- Roast the broccoli at 425°F for 18-22 minutes, turning once halfway through, until browned at the edges and tender when pierced with a fork.
- While the broccoli roasts, divide the beef into 3 equal portions and gently shape them into patties about 3/4 inch thick; season both sides with the remaining salt.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes, until a drop of water sizzles on contact.
- Cook the patties in the dry skillet for 4-5 minutes per side, until browned and the centers reach 160°F; lower the heat if the outside darkens too quickly.
- Top each patty with cheddar during the last minute, cover the skillet, and cook until the cheese melts.
- Stir the mayonnaise and mustard together in a small bowl for 30 seconds, until smooth.
- Serve each cheeseburger with roasted broccoli and the sauce; offer buns separately if desired.
