Yeah, yeah, we know the best burgers aren't actually stored on a shelf above all the lesser meat patties. But you get the point. This burger is LARGE and IN CHARGE...

Ingredients:
3 oz. raw lean ground turkey
1/4 cup finely chopped mushrooms
One-half slice light white bread (40 - 45 calories per slice with at least 2g fiber)
3 tbsp. finely chopped onion
1 tbsp. fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
1/2 tbsp. finely chopped parsley
1/2 tbsp. Dijonnaise
1/2 tbsp. ketchup
1/4 tsp. crushed garlic
dash salt

Directions:
Place the half-slice of bread in a blender or food processor, and pulse until you have soft, fluffy breadcrumbs.

In a medium bowl, combine breadcrumbs with all other ingredients and knead by hand until integrated. Form into a nice, big patty about 3/4 of an inch thick.

Bring a pan misted with nonstick spray to medium heat on the stove. (Use a grill pan if you've got it.) Place patty in the pan, cover, and cook for 5 - 7 minutes. Very carefully flip the patty, re-cover the pan, and cook for another 5 - 7 minutes, until patty is cooked through. Serve on a plate, on a bun, over lettuce... whatever!

Sounds good. I will have to try it. I use 99% lean turkey to make tacos and my husband and I like it better than beef.
