Turkey Burgers with Pizzazz

Finally, turkey burgers that are moist and flavorful and won’t dry out on the grill! This tasty number is from Sharing Mountain Recipes: The Muffin Lady's Everyday Favorites, by Randi Lee Levin.

Topping:

  • 1 cup shredded green cabbage
  • 2 tablespoons julienne carrots (cut into small, thin 2-inch strips)
  • 2 tablespoons julienne zucchini (cut into small, thin 2-inch strips)
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh sweet or lemon basil
  • ½ cup Plain Mountain High Yogurt

 Burgers:

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • ½ cup Plain Mountain High Yogurt
  • ¼ to 1/3 cup finely diced red onion (to taste)
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic, or 2 cloves crushed
  • Sea salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 wheat, multi-grain, or oat rolls
  • 8 thin tomato slices
  • 1 cup spinach leaves, washed and patted dry

To make the topping: In a medium glass or ceramic bowl, toss together the cabbage, carrots, zucchini, parsley, basil, and yoghurt. Cover and refrigerate until 20 minutes before serving, or set aside in a cool spot.

Next, make the burgers. Thoroughly mix the turkey, yoghurt, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Shape mixture into four patties of equal size. Spray the turkey burgers with vegetable cooking spray before grilling them directly over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, until no longer pink in the center. Alternately, spray and fry in a non-stick skillet over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until no longer pink inside.

Place each burger on the bottom side of a roll, then top with equal amounts of the vegetable mixture. Place the tomato slices, spinach leaves, and the remaining half of the roll on top.

Makes 4 servings.
