Ingredients

• 1 egg white, lightly beaten
• 1/3 cup cheddar cheese, diced
• 12 oz. lean ground turkey
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 1/3 cup bread crumbs
• 2/3 cup chopped onion
• 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 2/3 cup salsa (plus more for topping)
• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 1 cup green leaf lettuce (about 4 large leaves)
• 4 English muffins, split and toasted

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the egg white, cheese, turkey, salt, kidney beans, bread crumbs, onion, cilantro, and salsa and mix thoroughly. Divide the mixture and form into 4 patties. Tuck any pieces of cheese into the burgers with your fingertips to prevent scorching. Heat the oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the burgers and cook 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Serve on English muffins, accompanied by lettuce and extra salsa ( to use as topping).
