Ingredients:
- 1 large egg
- 3 T tomato sauce
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
- ¼ t pepper
- 1 lb lean ground turkey
- 2 oz Monterey Jack cheese, cut into six ½-inch cubes
- 6 whole wheat buns
Mix the egg, tomato sauce, parmesan cheese, pepper and turkey in a bowl with a large spoon, then form into 6 burger patties. Stuff a cube of cheese into the center of each burger. Make sure it is completely buried and covered on all sides, otherwise it will melt all over the grill.
Grill approximately 5 minutes per side. Do not mash or press with a spatula while cooking. If you see the cheese begin to ooze out you will know they are done. Serve on whole wheat buns with homemade catsup. Makes 6 burgers.
