Healthier Bacon Cheeseburger

Veggie Burger with Turkey Bacon and Rosemary Garlic Potatoes

There is nothing more classic than a good old grilled burger and fries. This recipe adds a healthier twist to the old classic by utilizing frozen veggie patties, deli turkey instead of bacon, and lightly fried home style potatoes seasoned with rosemary and garlic. And it wouldn't be complete without grilled corn on the cob!

Here's how you can enjoy it:


Turkey Bacon

2 Slices of medium sliced deli oven roasted turkey
1 Tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon fresh or dried rosemary

1. Heat the olive oil in a non stick pan
2. Slice the sliced deli turkey into bacon size slices
3. Sprinkle pepper and rosemary on both sides of turkey-bacon
4. Lay slices in pan and let sizzle for 1 minute on each side or until the edges become a dark red

Lay bacon aside for burgers.

Rosemary Garlic Potatoes

4-5 medium sized potatoes
1 teaspoon fresh or dried rosemary
1/4 red onion
