This is the cookout recipe that will have everyone talking. The secret is mixing a creamy, spreadable cheese into the turkey patties. It gives them a rich taste without overpowering the burger. Ingredients:
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs |
1/3 cup reduced-fat garlic-herb spreadable cheese |
2 green onions, chopped |
4-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice |
1-1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peel |
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1-1/2 pounds lean ground turkey |
6 whole wheat hamburger buns, split |
3/4 cup mango salsa |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape into six patties.
2. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, lightly coat the grill rack. Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 4-6 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 165° and juices run clear.
3. Grill buns, uncovered, for 1-2 minutes or until toasted. Place burgers on bun bottoms. Top with salsa. Replace bun tops. Yield: 6 servings.
