Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups broccoli slaw
- 1/4 cup skinny blue cheese dressing
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tbsp red onion
- 1/4 cup Franks Hot Sauce
- salt and fresh pepper
- oil spray
- 5 slices reduced fat cheddar
- 5 whole wheat burger buns
- 1.25 lbs 93% lean ground turkey
- 2/3 cup grated carrots
- 1/4 cup seasoned whole wheat breadcrumbs
Instructions
- 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the broccoli slaw with the light blue cheese dressing. Set the mixture aside for later use.
- 2
In a large mixing bowl, blend together the ground turkey, grated carrots, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, diced onion, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Form the mixture into five equal patties, each weighing approximately 5.5 ounces.

Preheat a large skillet over high heat. Once the skillet is hot, lightly mist it with cooking oil. Place the turkey patties in the pan and immediately lower the heat to medium-low.

Allow the burgers to cook on one side until they develop a golden-brown crust, about 4 to 5 minutes, then carefully flip them over.

Continue cooking for an additional 4 minutes, or until the patties are fully cooked through (maintaining medium-low heat to avoid burning). Add cheese on top of the burgers and serve them on toasted burger buns, garnished with the broccoli slaw.

If opting for grilling, ensure the grill is thoroughly cleaned before use and apply a light coating of oil spray to prevent the burgers from sticking.
