Gobble-y Good!
We gotta give it up to Ruby T for inspiring this tasty swap. A big fat turkey burger topped with mushrooms and Swiss cheese sure sounds good to us. But one look at the freakish nutritionals on Ruby's version sent us right to the kitchen to develop a guilt-free makeover. Prepare to have your socks rocked, people!
Ingredients:
1 small light hamburger bun (with around 80 calories and at least 3g fiber)**
1 plain lean turkey burger patty (like one by Foster Farms, Jennie-O, or Perdue)
1 slice 2% milk Swiss cheese
1/2 cup sliced baby bella mushrooms
2 small lettuce leaves
2 tomato slices
Optional: pickles, ketchup and mustard
Directions:
Split bun in half, and toast lightly. Place the lettuce and tomato slices on the bottom half of the bun. If you like, add a few pickle chips, a squirt of ketchup, and/or some mustard. Set aside. Cook turkey patty in a pan sprayed with nonstick spray (refer to packaging for specific time and stove heat). Once cooked, remove patty from the pan, add it to the bottom half of the bun, and top it with the slice of Swiss while the burger is still hot. Remove the pan from heat and re-spray it with nonstick spray. Over medium heat, cook the mushroom slices until tender (about 3 minutes), stirring occasionally. Place the mushrooms over the cheese-topped patty. Top with the other half of the bun and enjoy!
**Wonder Light and Nature's Own Double Fiber Wheat buns are great light buns. But if you can't find a light bun, just use 2 slices of high-fiber light bread instead (see HG's supermarket list for our faves)!
