    Juicy Stuffed Turkey Burger

    1 lb turkey
    1 egg white
    2 T Ketchup
    5 slices provolone cheese
    2 slices turkey bacon
    4 whole wheat buns

    Preheat grill or skillet. Combine turkey, egg white, and ketchup. Mix with fingers. Set aside. cut cheese and bacon into small pieces. Saute bacon. gather filling and wrap turkey around filling. Brush grill/skillet with olive oil. Serve on whole wheat buns.

    My family loves these.

    Also you can substitute turkey into most anything that calls for ground beef, including tacos.

    Servings: 5 • Size: 1 burger w/ slaw • Old Points: 5 pts • Points+: 6 pts (no slaw, 5)
    Calories: 208 • Fat: 9.5 g • Protein: 24.3 g • Carb: 6.7 g • Fiber: 1.6 g • Sugar: 1.9 g

    Ingredients:

    1 1/2 cups broccoli slaw
    1/4 cup skinny blue cheese dressing
    1.25 lbs 93% lean ground turkey
    2/3 cup grated carrots (grate in food processor)
    1/4 cup seasoned whole wheat breadcrumbs
    1 clove garlic, grated
    1 tbsp red onion, grated
    1/4 cup Franks Hot Sauce
    salt and fresh pepper
    oil spray
    5 slices reduced fat cheddar
    5 whole wheat burger buns (I used Martin's 100 calorie Potato Whole Wheat Buns)

    Directions:

    In a medium bowl combine broccoli slaw and skinny blue cheese dressing. Set aside.

    In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, carrots, breadcrumbs, garlic, onion, hot sauce, salt and pepper. Makes 5 equal patties, 5.5 oz each.




    Heat a large skillet on high heat. When hot, lightly spray the oil. Add burgers to the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low.



    Cook on one side until browned 4-5 minutes, then flip. Cook another 4 minutes or until burgers are cooked all the way through (keep heat medium-low to prevent burning); top with cheese and place on a toasted burger buns topped with broccoli slaw.

    If grilling, clean grill well before cooking and spray with oil spray to prevent sticking.


    Freezer Tip: To freeze raw, place them on a baking sheet with wax paper in between, when frozen transfer to ziplock bags.

    To freeze cooked, you can fully cook them, then freeze in ziplock bags for quick meals; to re-heat you can microwave or thaw first then place on a skillet.
