Cream Cheese Turkey Burgers

You have probably noticed a trend in my posts, I LOVE cream cheese. I try to incorporate it in most 'fitting' dishes =)
Anyway, So tonight was no different, and I decided to experiment as I often do.






YOU WILL NEED:

2 lbs of ground turkey
1 package hamburger buns
4 oz cream cheese
Italian Dressing
Ranch Dressing
Dales
Worcestershire sauce
minced garlic
Seasonings:
pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, Lawrys, Tony chacheres



DIRECTIONS:

You want to start putting in your seasonings (to your preference) & about 1 TSP of minced garlic,
a splash of dales, Italian dressing & worcestershire sauce (not too much, you don't want the meat to get too mushy)
and add in 2 ounces of cream cheese, little pieces at a time.
Mix together well.

Now Form into Patties and Pepper them.
(I use a piece of wax or parchment paper to separate the patties so they don't stick together and so you don't dirty more dishes!)

Cover with saran wrap and put in the refrigerator while you get the grill started. (or you could make them in the broiler, or in a skillet- up to you) We grilled them, well my husband did =)

When you cook them you want to make sure they are cooked all the way through! And that the liquids run clear when you press down on the burgers with a spatula.

While those are cooking.. you can get started on the cream cheese "spread", if you will.

Take the remainder of your cream cheese (2 ounces) and a generous squirt of ranch dressing, you want to mix them together in a double boiler until soft and creamy.


You can put this in the refrigerator for a few minutes for it to cool.

Now you can toast your hamburger buns under the broiler


Putting your burger together..

I put the cream cheese spread on the top bun because it was taking place of the usual "sliced cheese"
I put my other condiments on the bottom bun.

Then placed on Turkey Burger



and Voila!


Hope you all enjoy! My family and I really enjoyed it! =)
