HG'S FLAT TOP PATTY MELT - WW POINTS = 5

Steps:

• Toast bread slices until they are halfway to desired crispiness. Top each slice with a piece of cheese, and continue toasting until cheese is melted and bread is toasty.
• In a pan sprayed with nonstick spray, cook onions with 2 tablespoons of water over medium heat until desired texture is reached (3 - 5 minutes).
• Prepare burger patty according to the directions on the package (either in the pan sprayed with nonstick spray, or in the microwave). Place half of the grilled onions on one cheese-topped bread slice, and cover with the burger patty. Top with the rest of the onions, and finish off with the other slice of cheesy bread. Enjoy!

PATTY MELT

Steps:

• Melt butter over flat top griddle or large cast-iron skillet and toast rye bread slices. Season and grill burgers on flat top. Cook to medium-rare. Put olive oil on griddle and grill onions until caramelized. Melt cheese slices over each burger. Assemble pattymelt by placing cheeseburgers over one slice each rye toast, top with caramelized onions and remaining slices of rye toast.
• Serve with French fries and sliced cantaloupe.

HG'S ISLAND INSANITY BURGER - WW POINTS = 5

Steps:

• Bring a pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove. (If you have a grill pan, use it -- you'll get neato grill marks.) Lay pineapple ring in the pan, and cook until slightly blackened and caram elized, about 3 minutes per side. Set aside to cool.
• Cut a slit in the burger pouch. Place burger, slit-side up, in the microwave. Microwave for just 1 minute (not the time given on the box). If your microwave is low wattage, microwave for an additional 15 seconds. Remove patty from the microwave and place on a microwave-safe plate. Pour half of the teriyaki marinade on top, spread it around, and flip patty to coat evenly on both sides. Lay cheese slice on top of the patty, and microwave for 30 additional seconds.
• Place the burger patty on the bottom half of the bun, and top with the remaining teriyaki sauce. Add the pineapple ring, tomato, and lettuce. Spread mayo on the top half of the bun, and finish your burger off with the bun's top half. Now CHOMP!

HG'S THE CHEESEBURGER CHOMP - WW POINTS = 3

Steps:

• Prepare Boca patty according to package directions (in a pan with nonstick spray, or in the microwave).
• Top patty with cheese slice. Microwave for 20 seconds, or until cheese melts. Set aside.
• Place tortilla on a plate, and warm it slightly in the microwave. Place lettuce in the center of the tortilla, and top with tomato slices.
• Chop cheese-topped patty into bite-sized pieces, and then arrange on top of the lettuce and tomato. If you like, top with any (or all!) of the optional guilt-free burger toppings.
• Wrap tortilla up by folding in the sides first, and then rolling it up tightly from the bottom. Enjoy!

CLASSIC PATTY MELT

Steps:

• Season ground beef with salt and pepper and divide into 3 equal-sized balls. Shape each ball as close as possible to the shape of the bread. Make an indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb.
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook onion until soft and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and divide into 3 equal portions. Place beef patties into the same skillet and cook until desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, spread 1 teaspoons mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread.
• Place bread mayonnaise side-down in the skillet. Top with 1 slice of cheese, 1 beef patty, 1/3 of the onions, a second slice of cheese, and another slice of bread, mayonnaise side up. Cook bread until golden brown and cheese has started to melt, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip each sandwich over and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes.

HG'S EXPLODING CHICKEN TAQUITOS - WW POINTS = 4

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a medium bowl, combine the chicken and salsa, and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
• Remove chicken mixture from the fridge, and drain any excess liquid. Add cheese and taco seasoning, and mix to combine. This is your filling. Set aside.
• Prepare a baking sheet by spraying with nonstick spray, and set it aside.
• Dampen two paper towels, and place tortillas between them. Microwave for about 1 minute, until tortillas are warm and pliable.
• Take one tortilla (keep the rest between the paper towels), spray both sides lightly with nonstick spray, and lay it flat on a clean dry surface. Spoon about 2 heaping tablespoons of filling onto the tortilla. Spread it evenly across the entire surface, and roll tortilla up tightly, so that you have a cigar-shaped tube. Secure with toothpicks and place seam-side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
• Bake for 14 - 16 minutes, until crispy. Allow taquitos to cool for 5 minutes. If you like, dunk in enchilada sauce, salsa, or sour cream!

HG'S MIRACLE MASHIES - WW POINTS = 1

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. While waiting for the water to boil, peel and cube the potato.
• Once water is boiling, add peeled potato cubes and cauliflower. Wait for the water to return to a boil, and then reduce heat to medium. Cook for 15 - 20 minutes (until potatoes and cauliflower are very tender).
• Remove the pot from heat and strain out all of the water. Transfer contents to a large bowl, and add half & half, butter/buttery spread, salt, and (if you like) crushed garlic. Mash it all together with a potato masher, until completely blended. Season to taste with pepper and additional salt. Enjoy!
