• 4 slices American cheese, cut in half
• 1/2 cup chopped onions

Top each burger with half cheese slice. Remove burgers; keep warm.
Cook's Tip:

Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.

2. Add onions and mushrooms to same skillet and cook for 2 to 4 minutes until tender.  Add eggs and cook and stir 2 minutes until desired doneness.  Season as desired.
3. Place burgers on bottoms of buns.  Top burgers evenly with egg mixture.   Close sandwiches.
