Ingredients:

• 1 pound Ground Beef (93% lean or leaner)
• 1/4 cup soft whole wheat bread crumbs
• 1 large egg white
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 whole wheat hamburger buns, split

• 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onion, green part only
• 1/2 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 teaspoon dark sesame oil
• 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

• 1/2 cup romaine lettuce, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup shredded red cabbage
• 1/4 cup shredded carrot
• 1 teaspoon unseasoned rice vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Cooking:

1. Combine Sesame-Soy Mayonnaise ingredients in small bowl; cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
2. Combine Slaw Topping ingredients in small bowl, cover and set aside.
3. Combine Ground Beef, bread crumbs, egg white, salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper in large bowl, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Lightly shape into four 1/2-inch thick patties.
Cook's Tip: To make soft bread crumbs, place torn bread in food processor or blender container. Cover; process, pulsing on and off, to form fine crumbs. One and one-half slices makes about 1 cup crumbs.
4. Place patties on grid over medium ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 8 to 10 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 7 to 9 minutes), until instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into center registers 160°F, turning occasionally. About 2 minutes before burgers are done, place buns, cut sides down, on grid. Grill until lightly toasted.
Cook's Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
5. Spread equal amount of mayonnaise on bottom of each bun, top with burger. Evenly divide Slaw Topping over burgers. Close sandwiches.
