Author Notes
Learn turkey, caramelized onions and mushrooms, Gruyere cheese. These burgers are incredibly moist and don't need anything but a bed of spinach to feel special. —Vicki Amsinger

Heat 2 teaspoons of the olive oil over medium low heat in a large skillet. Add the onions and pinch of sugar and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized.
