Total Time:

Servings:
8 servings, generous 1/2 cup filling each
Ingredients
-
12 ounces 90%-lean ground beef
-
1 large onion , finely diced
-
2 cups finely chopped cremini mushrooms, (about 4 ounces)
-
5 plum tomatoes, diced
-
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
-
1/2 cup water
-
1/4 cup cider vinegar
-
1/4 cup chili sauce, such as Heinz
-
1/4 cup ketchup
-
8 whole-wheat hamburger buns, toasted if desired
Directions
1.
Crumble beef into a large nonstick skillet; cook over medium heat until it starts to sizzle, about 1 minute. Add onion and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the vegetables are soft and the moisture has evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes.
2.
Add tomatoes and flour; stir to combine. Stir in water, vinegar, chili sauce and ketchup and bring to a simmer, stirring often. Reduce heat to a low simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thickened and the onion is very tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve warm on buns.
Tip:
MAKE AHEAD TIP: The filling will keep in the freezer for up to 1 month.
