Bacon-Mushroom Cheeseburgers

Ingredients:

2 lbs. ground turkey or beef
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Bacon slices (depends on how many you're feeding)
1/2 lb white button mushrooms, sliced 1/4" thick
6 green onions, white and green portions, cut into 1" pieces
1 Tbs. olive oil
6 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, sliced
6 hamburger buns

*Note that this recipe will serve 6, so you can cut it in 1/2 to serve only 3 or double it to serve 12 and so on and so forth.

1. Prehat griddle or non-stick pan on medium-high heat. Divide meat into equal portions. Season with salt and pepper; set aside. Place bacon on griddle; cook until crisp, about 10 minutes.

2. In bowl, combine mushrooms, green onions, oil, salt and pepper. Spred this mixture on griddle. Cook, stirring until tender, appx 10 minutes. When finished, transfer to bowl.

3. Place burgers on griddle or grill. Cook until done. Top burgers with cheese and cook until melted. I cover mine so it melts a little quicker.

4. Transfer burger to bun and top with 2 bacon slices and some mushroom mixture.

We usually serve with baked beans and salad or something similar. Enjoy!
