For my hamburger lovers...you know who you are! I don't think this meal should be a regular, however, go ahead and try it out for those night you are really craving a cheeseburger!!
Get a couple pounds of ground turkey meat and make sure it is thawed out enough, because you will be getting very touchy with it tonight!
Throw the ground turkey into a large bowl and put a cup of pure salsa in with it. The salsa I recommend is Archers Farm from Target or an organic store, like Sunflowers. Put 1/2 cup shredded cheese and mix around. You don't want too much cheese, just enough for a little flavor, but too much will place you over your caloric and fat limit. Once it's mixed up, make into hamburger patties. Freeze patties that won't be used that night, so you can eat them later when you need a quick meal. Throw the patties onto a George Foreman or another kind of grill.
Use whole wheat sandwich thins from any grocery store. These are low calorie and come from whole grains.
The salsa and cheese provide enough flavoring there won't be a need for mayo, mustard, ranch, etc. Just throw some lettuce and tomatoes for veggies, and bam, you have a delicious burger!
Eat with a fruit salad and you will be full for hours!
