Recipe Introduction
These messy, robust burgers are just as delicious and satisfying as a meatball sub.
List of Ingredients
Cooking spray
4 cups red bell pepper strips
2 cups green bell pepper strips
2 cups vertically sliced onion
1 1/2 cups fat-free Italian herb pasta sauce (such as Muir Glen)
12 ounces hot turkey Italian sausage
12 ounces ground turkey breast
6 (2-ounce) whole wheat hamburger buns
3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded sharp provolone cheese Recipe
1. Prepare grill or broiler.
2. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers and onion; saute 10 minutes. Add pasta sauce, and cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated. Keep warm.
3. Remove casings from sausage. Combine sausage and turkey in a large bowl. Divide mixture into 6 equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty.
4. Place patties on a grill rack or broiler pan coated with cooking spray; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done.
5. Place 1 patty on bottom half of each hamburger bun; top each patty with 2/3 cup bell pepper mixture, 2 tablespoons cheese, and top half of each hamburger bun.
YIELD: 6 servings
