-
12 ounces
90%-lean ground beef
-
1 large
onion, finely diced
-
2 cups
cremini mushrooms, finely chopped; about 4 ounces
-
5
plum tomatoes, diced
-
2 tablespoons

-
1/4 cup
cider vinegar

whole-wheat hamburger buns, toasted if desired
- 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.
- 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.
Make Ahead Tip: The filling will keep in the freezer for up to 1 month.
