Here's a juicy, slightly sweet burger with a savory sauce that will be a hit whether you're fixing it for yourself or for you and a friend. Ingredients:
3 garlic cloves, peeled |
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided |
2 tablespoons mayonnaise |
1 teaspoon prepared pesto |
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning |
2 slices whole wheat bread |
4-1/2 teaspoons honey |
1-1/2 teaspoons dijon mustard |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
dash pepper |
1/2 pound lean ground turkey |
2 red lettuce leaves |
2 slices tomato |
2 slices sweet onion |
Directions:
1. Place garlic on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon oil. Wrap foil around garlic. Bake at 425° for 15-20 minutes or until garlic is softened. Cool for 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and pesto; set aside. In another small bowl, combine Italian seasoning and remaining oil; brush over bread. Set aside.
3. Squeeze softened garlic into a large bowl. Add the honey, mustard, salt and pepper. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape into two patties.
4. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until no longer pink. Grill bread for 1-2 minutes on each side or until toasted. Top each slice of bread with lettuce, burger, tomato, onion and 1 tablespoon mayonnaise mixture. Yield: 2 servings.
