Grilled Mushroom & Tomato Burger

Mushrooms are considered by many to be a weight loss diet superfood. They are low in fat and high in fibre so they keep you feeling fuller longer. This recipe takes this weight loss superfood and puts it in the form of a burger.

Because the primary sources of fat in this recipe are from avocado and olive oil, it is low in saturated fats and therefore heart healthy.
