Serv­ings 12 burg­ers

Author Liz Geeslin

Ingredients

• 3 pounds ground turkey, 93% or 85% lean
• 1 12 oz frozen chopped bell pep­pers, thawed and drained or 1 large green bell pep­per diced
• 2 4 oz cans diced jalapenos, drained
• 3/​4 cup dried bread crumbs, reg or gluten free you can also use ground oatmeal
• 3 large eggs or 3/​4 cup Egg Beaters
• 8 – 10 ounces crum­bled Blue Cheese
• 1 tsp salt

Instructions

• Pre­heat oven to 375.
• In a large bowl, com­bine all of the ingre­di­ents and gen­tly mix well.

  I use rub­ber gloves to mix every­thing and it works great!
• Either por­tion into 12 burg­ers using a form or by hand or por­tion into muf­fin tins.
• If mak­ing burg­ers, brown each side and place on a bak­ing sheet. 
• Fin­ish the burg­ers in the oven for 25 — 30 minutes.
• If mak­ing mini muffins, bake for 15 min­utes, larg­er muffins, bake for 25.
• Enjoy!

Notes

These are such a hit with my clients! To freeze, wrap the burg­ers in plas­tic wrap and store in a freez­er Ziplock bag.

You can freeze the muffins unwrapped on a bak­ing sheet, then once frozen, store in a freez­er bag.
