Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey, lean
- 4 slices Turkey bacon
- 4 slices Reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese
- 4 Whole wheat hamburger buns
- 1 cup Cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 1 Tomato, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium heat.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the ground turkey with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Divide the turkey mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty.
Cook the turkey bacon in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until crispy, then set aside.
In the same skillet, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil and sauté the mushrooms over medium heat until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Set them aside once done.
Grill the turkey patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Monterey Jack cheese on each patty and allow it to melt.
Lightly toast the whole wheat buns on the grill if desired.
Assemble the burger by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a turkey patty with melted cheese, a slice of turkey bacon, and sautéed mushrooms.
Top with a tomato slice and cover with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful low-fat bacon mushroom jack burger!
