Weight Watchers Turkey Burger
Author:
Ingredients
- 3/4 lb ground turkey
- 2 shallots (or 2 green onions), finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1/3 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 4 strips bacon
- 4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
- 1 tomato, cut into 4 slices
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, place turkey, shallots, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic, pepper, and cheese.
- Mix very gently with a fork to combine, being careful not to overwork meat.
- Form into 4 burgers.
- Cook bacon.
- Grill burgers and serve on the bun with bacon and tomato. I also like to serve the burgers with slices of sharp cheddar cheese, lettuce, and red onion.
Notes
*These are five points on Weight Watchers if you use turkey bacon. The original recipe called for it, but I am not a fan of turkey bacon so I had to replace it with the good stuff.
wow those look really good - great picture too!! I bet you could make them with reg onion or green onion...what do you think? I rarely buy shallots but I bet subbing would be almost as good. Can't wait to try these - I love ground turkey too!
ReplyDeleteYes, you can definitely substitute a different variety of onion (including regular yellow onion) for the shallots. :)
ReplyDeleteYum, Erin! Seriously, your picture is mouthwatering. I have some turkey burger in the freezer, and now I know what I am going to do with it. One last BBQ before the cool weather sets in!

ReplyDeleteGreat flavor and moisture for a burger main from ground turkey. A refreshing change from the traditional beef burger. This has been a newcomer on our weekly dinner rotation!
