Turkey Burger with Dressing & Cranberry Sauce {aka: Thanksgiving Burger}

It's your favorite holiday flavors in a burger! Yes, with this Turkey Burger with Dressing & Cranberry Sauce {aka: a Thanksgiving Burger}, you can enjoy your favorite holiday flavors in one juicy and delicious burger. And oh my, is it good.

I'm a huge fan of burgers. And I'm a huge fan of holiday flavors ... especially stuffing {or dressing}. So I figured, why not combine these loves?

And I'm oh so glad I did. Because this Turkey Burger with Dressing & Cranberry Sauce is ah-MAZ-ing.

These burgers are pretty quick and easy to whip up if you've got some leftover stuffing on hand.

Which was good for me yesterday. Because I had just gotten home from a trip and needed something pretty quick and easy to whip up for dinner.

Mmmm hmmmmm ... I was on an absolutely fabulous blog-related trip with these wonderful ladies. Have you met them and their blogs? Oh, let me tell ya, you should!

These wonderful ladies are {front row} Christy from Southern Plate and me! Tracey, that is, {back row} Chris from Celebrations at Home, Paula from Call Me PMc, and Sommer from A Spicy Perspective.

We had so much fun traveling to Andalusia, Alabama to spend time with this fabulous lady at her home ...

We cooked a full Thanksgiving dinner with Sister Schubert in her kitchen, complete with making her famous Parker House Style rolls from scratch.

We stayed at the Hickory Ridge Lodge, a really cool rustic antique-furnished lodge we had all to ourselves. You had to walk across a pond on a wooden bridge to get to the lodge, and I was always afraid I was going to trip and fall in the pond. Because, you know ... my Mom doesn't call me Miss Grace for nothing. Nope. I get that name for my complete and utter lack of it.

I made the other bloggers swear that if I did trip and fall in the pond, there would be absolutely no pictures!!! Thankfully, I crossed safely each time. {Even in the dark with a little flashlight.}

We got a little goofy with the lodge's antler collection ... Think we could get jobs as Santa's new reindeer??

Stay tuned for a more detailed post about our visit with Sister Schubert! I'll be sharing a whole lot more later this week, and can't wait to tell you all about it. It was so much fun! And Sister is such a wonderfully kind lady.

Until then, I think I'll be dreaming of a big fat Thanksgiving Burger, complete with my favorite slow cooker dressing & homemade Grand Marnier cranberry sauce. I'm definitely looking forward to the next time I make these. Hmmmm ... probably with those yummy Thanksgiving leftovers that'll be around later this week!

Thank you for stopping by . We'd love to have you back soon!

It's your favorite holiday flavors in a burger! Yes, with this Turkey Burger with Dressing & Cranberry Sauce {aka: a Thanksgiving Burger}, you can enjoy your favorite holiday flavors in one juicy and delicious burger. And oh my, is it good.

prep time: 20 Mcook time: 15 Mtotal time: 35 M

ingredients:

1 lb. ground turkey
1 egg
1/4 c. seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 c. finely chopped onion
1/2 tsp. dried sage
2 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary {or 3/4 tsp. dried}
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. black pepper

instructions:

How to cook Thanksgiving Burger

Place ground turkey, egg, bread crumbs, onion, sage, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Mix until well combined. Divide mixture into 4 equal pieces and shape into burger patties.
Heat 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add burger patties and cook until burgers are cooked through, approximately 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally. {If the burgers are getting too browned on the bottom before they're cooked through, I pour about 1/4 cup of hot water in the pan and continue cooking.}
With the burgers still in the pan, place a piece of dressing on top of each burger and top with a slice of provolone. Heat until cheese is melted, covering the pan if needed.
Place burgers on buttered {optional} buns and top each burger with about a tablespoon of cranberry sauce.

TRACEY'S NOTES

If you don't have leftover dressing on hand, you can whip some up. Combine herb-seasoned stuffing mix {I use Pepperidge Farm}, sauteed onion and celery, and chicken broth enough broth to make the mixture moist and stick together in clumps when squeezed in your hand. Add a touch of salt and pepper. Place mixture in a baking dish coated with non-stick cooking spray and bake at 350 degrees for about 20 to 30 minutes.
