    Occasionally, I will add a piece of turkey bacon to change things up a little.

    I make turkey patties (you could eat them as a burger if you wish) that I usually serve with quinoa and salad. These are easy and DELISH!

    20 oz pkg 93/7 Jennie-O ground turkey
    1 egg
    1/3 cup bread crumbs (I use contadina Italian)
    2 TBSP Soy Sauce
    1 TBSP Lemon juice
    2 TBSP sliced scallions (I probably double this).

    Spray frying pan liberally with Pam non-stick spray. Mix all ingredients together; divide and make 8 patties. Cook over medium heat, about 4 minutes each side, until done. Do not overcook, as this will make them dry... but make sure they are cooked through.

    Each patty contains:
    Calories: 102
    Fat: 1.5g
    Protein: 18g
    Carbs: 3.5

    Mediterranean Turkey Burgers
    Serve a light and fresh turkey burger flavored with pesto and feta cheese. A spicy and creamy tzatziki sauce is great spread on the burgers or served on the side for dipping.


    YIELD: 4 servings (serving size: 1 stuffed pita half)
    PREP TIME:30 Minutes
    COURSE: Sandwiches
    Ingredients

    1/2 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
    1/4 cup (1 ounce) crumbled feta cheese
    1 tablespoon minced red onion

    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    1 pound ground turkey breast
    1 garlic clove, minced
    Cooking spray
    2 cups arugula
    2 (6-inch) whole-wheat pitas, toasted and halved
    Preparation

    1. Combine first 8 ingredients in a bowl; mix until combined. Divide panko mixture into 4 portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick oval patty.

    2. Heat a nonstick grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add patties to pan; cook 6 minutes on each side or until done. Place 1 patty and 1/2 cup arugula in each pita half.

    Tzatziki sauce: Combine 1/2 cup plain low-fat, Greek-style yogurt; 1/4 cup finely chopped seeded cucumber; 1/4 teaspoon salt; and 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper. Serve with sliced bell pepper and celery sticks.
