Mushroom and Swiss Burgers
With grilling season in full swing, it’s a perfect time to
highlight some different choices to the typical grilling fare. I give you mushroom and swiss burgers. Yes, you read that right. The trick is using ground turkey breast instead of beef, thus cutting out tons of fat and calories, while still packing a ton
of flavor, and protein. Sargento® also now sells thin slices of regular cheeses, which
are a mere 40 calories per slice. These help keep it simple to make the swap
for healthy items, without missing out on great taste!
1 pound ground turkey breast
1 yellow onion, sliced into rings
4 portabella mushroom caps
4 whole wheat sandwich thin rolls
4 slices Sargento thin swiss
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
½ tsp dried oregano
½ tsp dried thyme
Baby arugula
Salt and pepper to taste
Combine the turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and
oregano in a large bowl, and form the mixture into four 3 ounce patties. Place
the patties, onion slices, and mushroom caps on the grill. Grill the onions and
mushrooms until they have softened, and the burgers until cooked through. Top
each burger with a slice of cheese, a mushroom cap, an onion slice, and a small
handful of arugula, grab some napkins, and serve!
