Stuffed Turkey Burgers

1 pound ground turkey
1/2 cup chopped roasted red peppers drained (you can buy these in a jar at Winco)
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 tsp salt
black pepper
4 whole wheat buns

Divide turkey into 4 equal sized rounds. Make 2 equal sized patties out of each round, for 8 patties total

Sprinkle one side of 4 of the patties with 2 tablespoons each of roasted red peppers and cheese, and top with remaining patties, working the turkey around the edges to seal the burgers closed.

Sprinkle the patties with the salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Grill or broil until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Serve on the buns. Makes 4 servings. (be careful when turning the burgers, turkey doesn't stick together as well as beef)
