Plus, if you add my special zero-point cheeseburger sauce (OH MY GOODNESS), they taste just like fast food! Give it a shot, I promise everyone will love them!!

I will also leave a link for my cheeseburger salad after the recipe. It uses the same sauce as a dressing and it is AMAZING!

Cooking for the family/people not on WW.. here's my tip!

Serve your burger on a low point bun. You could use whole wheat (2 points) or smart baking (1 point) and give everyone else their bun of choice. This was my fiances burger with a bakery bun, I used a smart baking bun. Serve your burger with carrot fries, delicata squash or veggies and serve everyone else fries!

Spray your hands, or the ground meat, with cooking spray to prevent sticking! You can substitute ground turkey breast as well.

Allie Carte Tips: Don't have flour? No worries! Just add 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt to your flour. Stir it all together before adding any other ingredients. Make sure your self rising flour is not expired as well. If it is, just follow the steps above to fix it!

Turkey Burgers

I am a HUGE burger fan. And there’s nothing I love more on my burger than my BBQ Onion Jam. It adds to the flavor of any type of burger you’re making; I chose a turkey burger tonight and I would have to say it’s one of the best burgers I’ve ever had! No cheese needed when the patty and topping are this good!
