Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms
- 1 as needed olive oil spray
- 4 slices low fat Swiss cheese slices
- 1 small small onion
- 4 buns whole wheat hamburger buns
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato
Instructions
Finely chop the baby bella mushrooms and onion. Set aside.
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil spray.
Add the chopped mushrooms and onion to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and most of the moisture from the mushrooms has evaporated. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, cooked mushroom-onion mixture, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and form into patties.
Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly spray with olive oil spray.
Place the patties on the grill pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked with a safe internal temperature, about 165°F (74°C).
About 1 minute before the patties are finished cooking, place a slice of low-fat Swiss cheese on each patty, and allow to melt.
In a small bowl, mix together the reduced-fat mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Spread a teaspoon of the mixture on the inside of each hamburger bun.
Assemble the burgers: Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by a cheese-covered patty, a slice of tomato, and the top bun.
Enjoy the healthier, delicious Mushroom Swiss Burgers with your favorite low-fat sides!
