Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey (93% lean)
- 4 pieces Whole wheat hamburger buns
- 4 slices Reduced-sodium turkey bacon
- 8 ounces Fresh mushrooms
- 4 slices Reduced-fat Pepper Jack cheese
- 1 small Red onion
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, mix ground turkey, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt until well combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties.
Step 2
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the turkey patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Step 3
While the burgers are cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in another skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook until crispy, about 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and add the mushrooms. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender and slightly golden brown.
Step 5
Thinly slice the red onion into rings.
Step 6
During the last minute of cooking the patties, place a slice of reduced-fat Pepper Jack cheese on each patty and cover to melt the cheese.
Step 7
Toast the whole wheat buns in a toaster or on a grill for about 1-2 minutes until slightly crisp but not burnt.
Step 8
Assemble the burgers: Place a handful of fresh spinach leaves on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the turkey patty with melted cheese, a slice of turkey bacon, sautéed mushrooms, and red onion rings. Top with the remaining half of the bun.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy Bacon Mushroom Jack Burger!
