Bacon Cheddar Cheese Burgers

4 burgers - 9 points

4 strips turkey bacon
1 1/2 pounds lean ground turkey breast (with no skin)
1/4 cup minced fresh watercress
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup minced button mushrooms
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 sprays canola oil cooking spray
4 (3/4 ounce) slices reduced-fat Cheddar
2 English muffins, split in half and toasted lightly
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
1 medium beefsteak tomato, cut into 4 slices
1 medium red onion, cut into 4 slices
1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce

In a nonstick 10-inch saute pan, cook the turkey bacon over medium-high heat until crisp. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain grease and set aside. When bacon has cooled, break each piece in half.

In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, watercress, Worcestershire sauce, mushrooms, and pepper and stir until well mixed. Form meat mixture into 4 patties.

Heat a nonstick griddle or large nonstick pan over medium-high heat and spray twice lightly with canola oil cooking spray. Place each patty on griddle, in batches as necessary, and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes. Flip burgers, cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, and then top each patty with 1 slice of bacon (which will be in 2 pieces), and 1 slice of cheese. Cook until cheese is has softened. Remove patties from griddle. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of light mayonnaise over each English muffin half. Place burgers on 1 half English muffin and top the burger with 1 slice tomato, 1 slice red onion and 1/4 cup shredded lettuce.
