Quick, homemade turkey patties piled high with juicy tomato and bubbly melted cheese make an irresistible breakfast stack that offers a change of pace from the usual. Pair with a salad for a great brunch or lunch. Patties can be individually wrapped and frozen for up to 1 month; just defrost and reheat in the oven or microwave.

Ingredients

1 pound Ground turkey breast

4 teaspoons Sugar-free pancake syrup

1/2 teaspoon Dried sage

1/4 teaspoon Cayenne pepper

1/4 teaspoon Salt

1/8 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

1/8 teaspoon Ground ginger

1 teaspoon Extra-virgin olive oil

1 Large beefsteak tomato, cut into 4 slices

4 (1-ounce) slices Reduced-fat cheddar cheese

Preparation

Heat oven to broil.

Combine turkey, syrup, sage, cayenne, salt, pepper, and ginger in a mixing bowl and mix well. Divide into 4 (1/2-inch-thick) patties.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; cook patties until well browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from heat.

Place tomato slices in a single layer in a baking dish; season with salt and pepper. Top each slice with 1 turkey patty and 1 cheese slice; broil until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Serve hot.
