Herb & Cheese Stuffed Burgers

11111

I cheated all summer.  We ate a lot of burgers but I bought the frozen patties.  I love homemade burgers but just found myself falling for all the sales and ended up buying too many. 

I finally made some burgers that I am really proud of.  I was hesitant, I didn't think there would be enough herbs for the flavor to come through. I was wrong and they were perfect.  I loved the flavor.

I find stuffed things slightly annoying as they ooze out everywhere all the time and these were no different, but it seemed to work well and they were awesome.

Herb & Cheese Stuffed Burgers
Adapted from Taste of Home

1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tbsp. cream cheese, softened
2 tbsp. minced fresh parsley
3 tsp. dijon mustard, divided
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1/4 cup red pepper, chopped
3 tbsp. bread crumbs (I used gluten free)
2 tbsp. ketchup
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. dried rosemary, crushed
1/4 tsp. rubbed sage
1 lb. lean ground turkey, 93%

In a small bowl, combine the cheddar cheese, cream cheese, parsley and 1 tsp. mustard, set aside.  In another bowl, combine the onions, bread crumbs, ketchup, salt, rosemary, sage and remaining mustard.  Crumble ground turkey over mixture and mix well. 

Shape into 8 thin patties, spoon cheese mixture onto center on four of the patties, top with remaining patties and press edges to firmly seal.  Cook burgers in pan until done.
