Certainly! Here’s a revised version of the Patty Melts with Secret Sauce recipe with Weight Watchers points and nutrition information:

Patty Melts with Secret Sauce (Weight Watchers Points)

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb Ground beef (95% lean)
  • 6 slices rye bread (light or reduced-calorie, if available)
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 6 slices reduced-fat cheddar cheese
  • 6 slices reduced-fat provolone cheese
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

For the secret sauce:

  • ¼ cup light mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp chopped cooked bacon (reduced-fat)
  • 3 tbsp reduced-sugar ketchup
  • 1 tsp sugar substitute (such as Stevia)
  • 1 tsp sweet pickle relish

Instructions:

  1. Form and Season Patties: Divide the ground beef into 3 equal portions and shape into flattened patties, roughly the size of the bread slices. Season both sides of the patties with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Cook Patties: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Prepare Secret Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, chopped bacon, ketchup, sugar substitute, and sweet pickle relish until well combined. Set aside.
  4. Assemble Patty Melts: Wipe the skillet clean and reduce heat to medium. Butter one side of each slice of rye bread.
  5. Cook Patty Melts: Place 3 slices of bread buttered side down in the skillet. Top each slice with 2 slices of provolone cheese, a cooked meat patty, and 2 slices of cheddar cheese. Spread a portion of the secret sauce on the non-buttered side of the remaining 3 slices of bread and place them sauce side down on top of the assembled melts.
  6. Toast and Serve: Cook the patty melts until the bottom bread slices are toasted and the cheese has melted. Carefully flip and toast the other side until golden brown.
  7. Serve: Remove from skillet, cut in half if desired, and serve immediately.
