Ingredients
For the Cheese Stuffed Turkey Burgers with Salsa Mayo
- 16 ounces ground turkey, such as JENNIE-O® Lean Ground Turkey
- 1 cup salsa, such as CHI-CHI’S® Medium Thick n’ Chunky Salsa, divided
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/4 cup plain bread crumbs
- 4 slices jalapeno jack cheese

Directions
For the Cheese Stuffed Turkey Burgers with Salsa Mayo
Combine ground turkey with ½ cup of salsa, olive oil, salt and pepper, and breadcrumbs in a small bowl. Form into eight thin patties, about four inches wide and ½-inch thick. Fold each slice of cheese into quarters and overlap the quarters to create a stack. Place a stack of cheese in the center of four patties. Cover with remaining patties, crimp edges closed.
Spray skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat skillet over medium-high heat. Add burger patties to hot skillet. Cook approximately 14 to 16 minutes, flipping three times. Always cook to well-done, 165°F as measured by a meat thermometer.
Combine remaining salsa and mayonnaise in a small bowl. To assemble burgers, spread salsa mayo on the top and bottom of each bun, add a layer of spinach, a stuffed burger, sundried tomatoes and red onion slices.
