These were so yummy! I can't wait to have them again. They would be good with beef as well.
I didn't have any mozzerella when I thought of making these. I did have string cheese though. I have never tried to use string cheese this way but I figured it would work out just dandy.
Here is what went in:
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1/3 cup chopped olives
- 4 pieces of string cheese, slice
- 1 tbsp chopped basil
- 1-2 tbsp grated Parmesan
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- black pepper
- 15 oz can Fire-Roasted Tomatoes
- 1 tsp chopped basil
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 8 pieces of sliced whole wheat sourdough bread
Mix the turkey, olives, garlic, basil, Parmesan, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Place into the freezer for about 10-15 minutes.
Put your undrained tomatoes, 1 tsp basil and olive oil into a saucepan. Simmer while you make the burgers.
Form another thin patty and place over the top of the other patty. Pinch sides to seal. Place on either an outdoor or George Foreman Grill to cook.
Place burger on a slice of bread. Top with the Fire-Roasted Tomatoes and maybe add a little lettuce if your heart desires.
This was another easy recipe for a weeknight.

I love the idea of adding the string cheese into the burger...very nice, with all the great ingredients in it I am sure that the burger must be soooo tasty. I'll definitely try this recipe for a Summer BBQ. Thanks you! By the way, great pictures!
We had turkey burgers today on the BBQ but ours had greek olives and feta cheese and spices and they were so good. I will definitely give your recipe a try. Thanks for sharing.
I love using string cheese this way. Yum!
I think turkey burgers and basil were meant for each other.
I love how the mozzerella is all melted in!
OH MY YUM YUM YUM. That looks great. I think your cheese inside is awesome. I will have to try that some time. And I totally recall when all I had was string cheese in the fridge and did not use it because of the "form" it was in. Big DUH on my part. Just slice into small pieces.
Man, these look great. I love fire roasted tomatoes
Mmmm...Yummy! Once again You've come up with another delicious meal, my friend!
oh man...this sounds SO flavorful! My mouth is watering already! And with string cheese! So cool!
Awesome looking burgers. It's so cool that you used string cheese. I wouldn't have thought to use it too. I wish I had a turkey burger right now.
i adore your style of cooking
How clever to add string cheese in the turkey burger! I also love the addition of fire roasted tomatoes - delicious!
Yum!
I just wouldn't put olives in mine.
I swear, everything you make looks so delicious. I am going to make that one soon! Thanks Kim!

Looks so inviting, yummy
What a neat use of string cheese!
(Please don't tell anyone i just used the word neat in a sentence. *shame*)
(But it was neat) :p
Loving all the spices and herbs in your burger. It all sounds so good together.
You know how much I love turkey burgers...
ohohohohoh... I absolutely love this combination of sandwich filling ingredients. It sounds amazing!
This looks delish but Turkey is not very commen here.I can do this with chicken,right?
Yum! These look great - love the cheese inside the burger.
Flavorful doesn't begin to describe how these must taste. What great combinations you've used here. I'll bet these were wonderful.
Those burgers sound incredible!! I really appreciate all the photos that you post. Have a great weekend!
I love the studs of string cheese (we always have string cheese)...this sounds mighty tasty :D
Well, YUM! That looks absolutely delish! Friends were recently talking about burgers that were stuffed. I like how you used the string cheese in these.

oh goodness... that should NOT have looked so good to me at 10:30 in the morning... but it did, looks wonderful! happy friday!
I love the idea of using the string cheese! That's great! My husband would fight me on the ground turkey, so I'd have to make his with beef... I'd love the healthier turkey option, though!
The string cheese in the burger must make it taste absolutely great!!
I love all the flavors in this burger. Since I have gobs of ground beef, I'll have to give it a try with that!
That is a money shot right there, look at that heavenly cheese inside the burger. I can't wait to try this!
