Can’t imagine healthy burgers? Try this brown bread-soya cutlet combination with low calorie Thousand Island dressing. The chemical content in soya helps control diabetes and prevents nerve damage.

Clean and wash the soya granules thoroughly and soak in 1 cup of hot water for 15 minutes. Drain the granules and discard the water.
Combine all the remaining ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
Divide the mixture into 6 equal parts and shape into flat patties.
Cook on a non-stick pan using a little oil till both sides are golden brown. Keep aside.

For the dressing

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and keep aside.

How to proceed

Slice each bun into two halves and toast lightly in an oven or on a tava (griddle).
Spread some of the low calorie Thousand Island dressing on each half.
On one half, arrange 2 lettuce leaves, 1 cutlet, 1 onion slice, 2 cucumber slices and 2 tomato slices and cover with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately.
