Ingredients
1 lb unsalted butter, room temperature
1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
1 tbsp chopped fresh sage
2 tbsp chopped flat leaf parsley
1 tbsp chopped chives
1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary
2 lb freshly-ground beef
= (a combination chuck and
shoulder works best)
Coarse salt, to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
Vegetable oil, for grill
Baby lettuce, for serving
Directions
In a medium bowl, make compound herb butter by combining softened butter,
thyme, sage, parsley, chives, and rosemary; this can also be done in a food
processor. Turn out onto parchment or plastic wrap and roll into a log, 1
1/2 to 2 inches in diameter. Chill until firm, or freeze for up to one
month
Heat grill or grill pan. Form 4 eight-ounce burgers, 1-inch thick. Cut
four 1/4-inch thick slices of compound butter from the log. Make an
indentation in the center of each burger, and place half of a 1/4-inch
slice of compound butter inside. Reshape meat to cover butter, making sure
it is not visible from either side; season both sides with salt and
pepper.
Oil grill with a small amount of vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Grill
burgers for 5 to 7 minutes per side for medium doneness. Remove from grill
and place each burger on a baby lettuce leaf and serve.
This recipe yields 4 servings; 1 carb gram per serving.

Foods containing carotenes (includes carrots, mangos and sweet potatoes) These colorful plants have high levels of carotenes (alpha and beta) believed by many play a key part in minimizing the chances of contracting, particularly cancers of the lungs. Many also help you lose weight, so make sure you add them to your diet. Foods rich in flavonoids (inlcudes dark chocolate, spinach, lima bean and cayenne) The nutrients called 'flavonoids' which exist in these types of food are believed to be good in fighting cancer. Specialists looking into the effects of flavonoids believe they may well also have numerous healthy properties, including, but not limited to, anti-candida and antiplatelet properties. A good number are also good for weight loss, so should be included in your weight loss program. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a weight loss regime primarily suggested by Barry Sears in a number of books and publications. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a weight reduction diet, however many people believe that they lose body weight by following this system. The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you control the amount of insulin and glucogen (two hormones), then your body releases eicosanoids which, as a result puts your body in a balanced state which is an awful lot more healthful than usual, this is referred to as 'the zone'. Sears believes that a body that is in 'the zone' is working at its most efficient and, as a consequence, does not build up layers of fat. The most important technique of the zone system is to maintain the ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to ensure you get high levels of Omega 3 and omega 6. |
