turkey burgers with a fried egg


ever get sick of eating just plain burgers? i do. so i decided to switch things up last night by adding a fried egg on top and serving it over a bed of sauteed spinach. not too shabby - plus it was healthy. i like to liberally season up my turkey burgers so i never feel like i'm missing the real thing.

ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey
1 tablespoon hamburger seasoning
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
4 garlic cloves, minced
salt and pepper
red pepper flakes, you be the judge on how many
american cheese
fried eggs
sauteed spinach

directions:
in a large bowl, mix together ground turkey, hamburger seasoning, red pepper flakes, worcestershire sauce, garlic cloves and salt and pepper. form into patties - i made about 6, but they were on the smaller side. you decide how big you want them.

preheat skillet with evoo over medium high heat. cook burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on one side, about 5 minutes. flip burgers over and cook for an additional 5 minutes, until it's cooked throughout. turn stove off and add cheese to patties, letting it melt.

to serve, place generous portion of sauteed spinach on bottom of plate. add turkey burger and top off with fried egg. poke small hole in egg yolk, letting it run down the side of the burger and into the spinach. make sure to get all the elements of this dish into each bite!
