Ingredients
  

1 lb ground beef or turkey

1 cup pizza sauce

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 teaspoon garlic powder

4 slices mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup pepperoni slices

4 hamburger buns

1 cup fresh spinach (optional)

Olive oil for grilling

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef (or turkey), Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined; do not overwork the meat.

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty.

      Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and brush with olive oil. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side.

        Flip the patties and spread pizza sauce generously on top of each one. Place 1 slice of mozzarella cheese on each patty and sprinkle a few pepperoni slices over the cheese.

          Cover and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach your desired doneness.

            While the burgers are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or skillet until golden brown.

              Assemble the burgers by placing the spinach (if using) on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the cheesy patty, and top with extra pizza sauce and more pepperoni if desired. Close the burger with the top bun.
