Grilled Cheese-Stuffed Turkey Burgers

Grilled Cheese-Stuffed Turkey Burgers

Take a break from traditional burgers. Lots of spicy chiles, Monterey Jack cheese and salsa mix with ground turkey breast for burgers to serve to a crowd.

Expert Tips

Cooking burgers over medium heat ensures juicy, well-cooked burgers; cooking them over high heat will cause burgers to shrink.

When you want to use chiles with a little less heat, choose poblano or Anaheim chiles instead of jalapeño chiles.

    These were yummy! I halved the recipe because I only had one pack of ground turkey. They held together really well on the grill. I will certainly make again, but will add more shredded cheese- the salsa and peppers drowned it out a bit. I definitely recommend this one!
