Ingredients
1/4 pound ground beef (85% lean or leaner)
2 tablespoons quick cooking oats
1 tablespoon ketchup
2 teaspoons low-fat 1% milk
1 teaspoon dry onion mix
Cooking spray
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before beginning.
In a small bowl, combine the ground beef, quick cooking oats, ketchup, milk, and dry onion mix. Stir until evenly mixed; do not overmix.
Lightly coat the inside of a microwave-safe mug or ramekin with cooking spray.
Press the beef mixture firmly into the prepared mug, using your fingers or the back of a spoon to compact it.
Using a small knife or your finger, make a shallow hole in the center of the mixture, extending down to the bottom of the mug; this allows heat to penetrate to the center.
Place the mug in the microwave and cook on HIGH (100% power) for 3 minutes, or until the beef is no longer pink and reaches a safe internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Let cool for 1 minute before serving.
