This is another yummy "healthier" burger recipe. I made it for dinner tonight and my 7 year old LOVED it! I got it from the cookbook " Everyday Light Meals".
Hawaiian Turkey Burgers (7 WW PPV per patty...at 4 servings per recipe)
Yields: 4 servings (mine made 5 good sized patties)
1 can (8 oz.) sliced pineapple
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup sliced green onions
1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1 Tbsp reduced sodium soy sauce
1/4 tsp salt (I omitted this)
1 pound lean ground turkey
1/4 cup reduced sodium teriyaki sauce
4 sesame hamburger buns (I used sandwich thins instead)
Coat grill rack with nonstick cooking spray before starting the grill. Drain pineapple, reserving 1/4 cup juice; set pineapple aside. In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, onions, red pepper, soy sauce, salt and reserved pineapple juice. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape into four patties.
Grill, uncovered, over medium heat for 3 minutes on each side. Brush with teriyaki sauce. Grill 4-6 minutes longer on each side or until meat is no longer pink and a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees. Grill pineapple slices for 2 minutes on each side, basting occasionally with teriyaki sauce. Warm buns on grill; top each with a burger and pineapple slice. (I also add spinach leaves to mine)
