Mini Beef and Mushroom Patties image

No one will ever notice that you swapped in mushrooms for a third of the beef in these better-for-you mini burgers. Grated onion and a touch of soy add to their savoriness. Make a big batch of these pint-sized patties and freeze them-you'll be so glad you did. Serve them as finger food with a dipping sauce, turn them into sliders, or make it a meal with rice and steamed or roasted vegetables.
