1
Mix the Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until just combined to avoid overworking the meat.
2
Form the Patties
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a small patty, about 1 inch thick.

3
Preheat the Grill or Pan
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.
4
Cook the Patties
Place the patties on the preheated grill or pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip them.
5
Add Cheese
After flipping the patties, place a slice of cheese on top of each patty and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

6
Prepare the Buns
While the patties are cooking, slice the mini burger buns in half.
7
Layer the Ingredients
On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, and then the top half of the bun.
