Introduction

I love the flavors in these burgers. I use the sandwich thins rather than hamburger buns to cut the calories, and still feel like I am not missing out on anything.

These burgers are a great match for a side of sweet potato fries!

Tips

If you want to cut back on some calories, you can cut back on the extra cheese and BBQ sauce.

I lightly toast the buns before serving... gives it that extra special touch. =)


Directions

In a large bowl, combine turkey, BBQ sauce, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper and cheese. Mix until just combined, then make 4 burgers.

Preheat the grill or a skillet and cook the burgers until fully cooked. (I used a skillet and cooked the burgers about 8 minutes each side - they were juicy and not dried out).

While burgers are cooking, heat a skillet on medium heat and add olive oil. Add sliced onions with a pinch of salt and saute until caramelized, about 10 minutes.

When the burgers are ready, place on bun and top with cheese, onions, BBQ sauce and fresh romaine.
