Inside Out Jalapeno Stuffed Cheeseburger

**This recipe comes from The Dashing Dish. It was D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!! It had so much flavor. YUM. You've got to try it. Oh, and the picture I took for this dinner was so terrible that it did it no justice. So, this is just a random picture from a Google search that shows more what the burger looks like. When I make it again, I will take another picture and repost a new one. :)**

ALSO...go check out this link for another variation that looks like it would be good too.

Inside Out Jalapeno Stuffed Cheeseburger

1 1/2 lbs Lean ground turkey
2TB Dry Fiesta ranch dip mix
1/4 cup Salsa
4oz Jalapeno or Pepper Jack Cheese. (1 oz per burger. You could cut up a jalapeno cheese stick or just cut the blocked cheese into cubes)
Lettuce to wrap your burger in or you can use hamburger buns.
Salsa for garnish

Directions:
**I cooked mine on the stove in a skillet. If you BBQ them or do them over the stove, you don't need to turn on the oven.**

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil.

Place the ground turkey into a medium sized bowl with dip mix and salsa. Mix until well combined. The mixture should be pretty moist.

Form into 8 equal sized patties.

Place 4 of the patties on the foil lined baking sheet and place the cheese in the middle of the patty. Then place the other patty over top of that and seal the sides together.

Bake in oven for 30 minutes. Turn the burgers over and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Top the burger with salsa and wrap in a lettuce leaf.
