Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
2 1/2 | pounds ground turkey |
1/3 | cup mayonnaise |
1/3 | white onion , diced |
6 | slices of Muenster cheese |
1 | loaf Italian bread, cut into 4 slices on the bias |
1 | 1/2 head red leaf lettuce |
2 | tomatoes , cored and sliced |
| BASIL MAYONNAISE |
3/4 | cup mayonnaise |
3/4 | cup fresh basil |
1 1/2 | tablespoons lemon juice |
Heat the grill to medium-high
[1] In a small bowl, blend the basil mayo ingredients. Place in the fridge until ready.
[2] Mix together the turkey, onion, mayonnaise (for the burgers) in a bowl. Gently form into patties. Grill the burgers, until cooked though 7-8 minutes per side. During the last 2 minutes of grilling, top the burgers with cheese and place the bread on the grill to toast.
[3] Arrange lettuce leaves and tomatoes on the bread, top with the burgers and a dollop of basil mayonnaise.
We found that the meat didn't stick together very well with just the mayo, so next time I would add an egg to keep things melded better. I loved the basil mayo. I actually found fresh basil at the grocery store this time! Super quick recipe and I gotta say Muenster cheese is the best. Mmmmm.
