main meals | Beef burgers can send POINTS values soaring through the roof, but savvy barbecue chefs know a trick: Substitute lean ground turkey for the beef, and you can enjoy juicy, flavourful burgers for fewer POINTS all summer long

Ingredients

1 pound lean ground turkey
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
4 slice fat-free hard or semi-soft cheese, such as 3/4 oz American slices
4 medium mixed-grain hamburger roll(s)
8 piece lettuce
1/4 cup ketchup
1 small tomato(es), sliced

Instructions

Preheat grill or stove-top grill pan.

In a large bowl, combine turkey, ketchup and mustard. Mix well and form 4 equal patties, about 1-inch thick each.

Grill burgers until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Top each burger with 1 slice cheese; close grill or cover grill pan, and cook until cheese melts, about 1 minute.

Serve cheeseburgers on rolls with lettuce and tomato.

Chef Tips

We renovated Grilled Turkey Cheeseburgers by:

Swapping in lean turkey for high-fat beef and adding zero-POINT condiments to add moisture and flavour.

Using fat-free American cheese instead of regular.

Substituting mixed-grain rolls for plain white ones to increase fibre and B vitamins.
