This is, like, REALLY close to a healthy meal!\u00a0 I’m serious.\u00a0 So, here’s the deal:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 I love turkey burgers.
\n2.\u00a0 I love smash burgers.
\n3.\u00a0 I love Bacon.<\/p>\n

So…yea, I combined them all.<\/p>\n

\"Turkey

I know what you’re thinking – Kev, man, it has bacon in it.\u00a0 It’s not healthy.\u00a0 I’m here to tell you it IS healthy!\u00a0 Or…at least, healthier than you think!\u00a0 If I cook SIX Bacon Turkey Burgers in my cast iron skillet, it doesn’t have as much grease as cooking ONE ground beef burger.\u00a0 Yep, it’s that much of a difference – even with the bacon.\u00a0 So…you have to try this.<\/p>\n

I ground my bacon using a hand meat grinder.\u00a0 It’s really cool.\u00a0 Some mixers have meat grinder attachments you can buy fairly cheap.\u00a0 I’m betting you can also accomplish the Bacon Turkey Smash Burger by chopping up the raw bacon as small as possible.<\/p>\n

\"Turkey

Whatever method you use, you’ll be happy with what the bacon adds to your smash burger.\u00a0 Put it on this thin crappy healthy bread stuff, add some veggies, and a side of grilled sweet potato fries – and that’s a tasty yet healthy meal.<\/p>\n

If you want to leave the bacon out then use this recipe for Smoked Turkey Burgers with Jalapenos and Cheddar<\/a> and cook them like a smashburger.<\/p>\n

Bacon.\u00a0 Yay.<\/p>\n
