St. Louis Burgers

Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground Beef (93% lean or leaner)
• 1/4 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
• 4 hamburger buns, split
• 4 tablespoons marinara sauce (comes with the ravioli)
• 4 frozen toasted cheese ravioli

Instructions

1. Prepare toasted ravioli and sauce per package directions.

2. Combine ricotta cheese and Italian seasoning. Add Ground Beef, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Lightly shape into four 1/2-inch thick patties.

3. Place patties on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 8 to 10 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, covered, 7 to 9 minutes) until instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into center registers 160°F, turning occasionally.

   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.

4. Place burger on bottom half of each bun. Evenly top burgers with marinara sauce and ravioli. Close sandwiches.

   Cook's Tip: You may substitute your favorite marinara sauce, if desired.

• Test Kitchen Tips Keeping the lid closed lets the grill cook like an oven, with the heat reflecting off interior surfaces and cooking the food from all sides.
