- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

- Shape turkey mixture into five equally-sized patties.
- Coat a large non-stick skillet with cooking spray. Cook the burgers over medium heat for about 3 to 5 minutes., or until browned. Flip the burgers and cook for another 2 to 4 minutes.
- The burgers are done when a thermometer inserted in the center of the burger registers 165 degrees.
- Assemble each burger on a whole wheat bun and your favorite toppings.
