3 tablespoons minced onions
3 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon beef base
1 egg
1/4 cup steak sauce + additional for serving
1/2 cup frozen diced green peppers
28 saltine crackers
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef, 7% fat
1 (24- x 12-inch) sheet aluminum foil
cooking spray

Steps

1. Preheat grill on medium-high. Combine onions, water, beef base, egg, steak sauce and green peppers in food processor. Pulse 10 seconds to mix. (Or mix by hand.)
2. Crush crackers and add to onion mixture with ground beef; pulse 10–20 seconds until mixed. Form into 4 patties. Wash hands.
