Blue Cheese and Mushroom Turkey Burgers

May 15, 2013

This blue cheese and mushroom burger can be classified as gourmet comfort food. Burger aficionados may sneer at the use of ground turkey as opposed to premium ground beef but believe me when I say that the flavors really stand out. The patties are made by mixing onions, chopped mushrooms, garlic, and a splash of soy sauce. If you have extra time on your hands, you can even caramelize the onions before adding them to the burger mixture. Top this gourmet burger with your favorite fixings (blue cheese pairs especially well with fruit!).

Ingredients:

1 lb of Ground Turkey

2 Garlic Cloves

5 ounces of Portobello Mushrooms, Chopped

1/2 Onion, Chopped Fine

2 tablespoons of Soy Sauce

4 ounces of Blue Cheese

A Pinch of Sea Salt

Directions:

Mix all your ingredients together except for the cheese and form them into patties. Place your burgers either on the grill or in a large frying pan. Let them cook through flipping once.

Once they’re cooked through, drop a small amount of blue cheese on the top of each burger. Close up the grill top and let the cheese melt for a minute or two. If you’re pan frying them, just grab the top to your frying pan, close it up, and let the cheese melt down.
