Ingredients

1 lb. ground chicken

1 - 10 oz. frozen package spinach

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

Garlic salt and pepper to taste

Spray Pam

1 - tsp. olive oil

Hamburger bun (included in nutrition calculations)

Tips

Cooking at medium high heat will "sear" the cheese so it doesn't "run". (Don't cook all the way up on high, because your burger will be brown on the outside, but not be cooked inside).

Directions

Thaw spinach in microwave, and wring out in towel until all the liquid is removed.

Mix together in large bowl: Chicken, Spinach, Cheese. Season to taste.

Divide into 4 patties (consistency is sticky since there is very little fat in the ground chicken).

Spray Pam into skillet, as well as 1 tsp olive oil.
Cook patties over medium high heat 4-5 minutes on each side. Make sure they are cooked through. They will brown nicely!

Place on hamburger bun and enjoy. (optional any kind of bun or bagel thin, and add sliced tomato, etc).

Serving Size: Makes 4 patties
