Turkey Burgers with Gouda

This recipe is based on one by Rachael Ray, but revamped. The sauce is delicious and the little bit of sour cream makes up your fat intake. You don't need buns or bread for these burgers; just serve with Brussels sprouts or cabbage. So good!

Burgers
1lb Ground turkey
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup bell pepper, chopped
1 tsp flat leaf parsley, chopped
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp paprika
salt and pepper
2oz gouda cheese

Sauce
1 green onion, chopped fine
2 cups chopped spinach
1/2 cup sour cream
juice of 1/2 lemon
salt and pepper

Mix all burger ingredients, except the cheese in a large bowl and let sit at least 30 minutes.
Heat grill or skillet to high. Chop gouda into small pieces and mix into turkey meat. Pat out into patties approximate to your protein intake (I like 2 2oz patties). Place over heat and grill about 5-6 minutes per side.

Mix sauce ingredients and sit aside. When burgers are finished, top with a little bit of sauce.
