Breakfast Turkey Stack

February 4, 2009

Tired of the same old cereal and plain bagels? This refreshing morning meal is healthy yet appetizing. Whether you’re on the go or have time to sit, this breakfast special is easy to make and adds a twist to your routine.

Description
Quick, homemade turkey patties piled high with juicy tomato and bubbly melted cheese make an irresistible breakfast stack that offers a change of pace from the usual. Pair with a salad for a great brunch or lunch. Patties can be individually wrapped and frozen for up to 1 month; just defrost and reheat in the oven or microwave.

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients
1 pound ground turkey breast
4 teaspoons sugar-free pancake syrup
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 large beefsteak tomato, cut into 4 slices
4 (1-ounce) slices reduced-fat cheddar cheese

Instructions
Heat oven to broil.

Combine turkey, syrup, sage, cayenne, salt, pepper, and ginger in a mixing bowl and mix well. Divide into 4 (1/2-inch-thick) patties.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; cook patties until well browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from heat.

Place tomato slices in a single layer in a baking dish; season with salt and pepper. Top each slice with 1 turkey patty and 1 cheese slice; broil until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Serve hot.
