Number Of Ingredients 16

FOR THE BURGERS:
4 slices Turkey Bacon
½ cups Onion, Sliced Into Strips
1 cup Green Bell Pepper, Sliced Into Strips
1 pound Lean Ground Beef
¼ teaspoons Garlic Powder
¼ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
2 whole Wedges Of Laughing Cow Swiss Cheese, Sliced In Half
4 whole Wheat Hamburger Buns
FOR THE CHIPOTLE AIOLI SAUCE:
3 Tablespoons Fat Free Mayonnaise
3 Tablespoons Plain Greek Yogurt, Non-fat
2 teaspoons Chopped Chipotle Chiles In Adobo
1 teaspoon Minced Garlic
½ teaspoons Ground Cumin
4 teaspoons Lime Juice, Fresh

Steps:

For the burgers:
In a pan over medium heat, cook turkey bacon until it's nice and crispy. Once bacon is done being cooked, take the bacon out of the pan and set aside. Add bell pepper and onion into the same pan and cook until tender about 10 minutes. When done, set aside.
Add ground beef into a small bowl. Add garlic powder and ground pepper and mix well.
Divide the raw meat into 8 equal balls (I used my scale to measure into 2 ounces for each). Flatten out the ball, into a hamburger shape, and place half of a cheese wedge onto the center of 4 of the pieces of hamburger. Take the other four pieces of the hamburger and place on top of the cheese. Squish the two burgers together and seal the edges so the cheese doesn't ooze out.
Place on a preheated medium heat grill and cook until done-about 5 minutes per side.
Place burger on buns, top the burgers with bacon, peppers and onions and sauce.
For Spicy Chipotle Aiolo Sauce:
In a small bowl place all of the sauce ingredients together and whisk until combined.
Makes 3/4 cups or 12 tablespoons of sauce.
