Preparation
  1. Lightly rinse and pat dry mushrooms. Remove stems, and scrape gills.
  2. Brush both sides of mushrooms with oil; sprinkle with 2 tbsp Burger Seasoning. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat egg. Combine with beef and remaining seasoning and form into four patties.
  4. Grill patties and mushrooms over medium-high heat with lid closed for 4 min each side, or until an instant-read thermometer indicates an internal temperature of 160° F for beef, and until mushrooms are tender.
  5. In a small bowl, combine cream cheese with sauce mix.
  6. Spread cream cheese over four of the mushroom “buns”; top each with a patty, greens, and remaining mushroom caps.
Tips

Prep cream cheese ahead. Combine with Big Burger Sauce Mix, roll into a log, and refrigerate until ready to use. Slice into thin coins.
