Overall, this was very good and very rich. It was easy to make. The prep was easy with my Vidalia Chopper.
After reading the other coments, I made the following changes....
I omitted the carrot and added celery. I also doubled the (turkey burger, and used cubed cheddar instead of Velveeta. I topped it with a little shredded cheese and a handful of fresh bacon crumbles, and diced dill pickle. I served it with toasted galic bagguette.
We're stuffed.
