Hawaiian Turkey Burgers

By

My husband and I are burger people. We seem to find every excuse possible to go get some big, juicy burgers for dinner whenever we can! Now that we are both trying to eat healthier, we decided to give turkey burgers a whirl. We weren't disappointed! They were flavorful and delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup green bell pepper, minced
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger1 small can pineapple slices, reserve juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine turkey, bread crumbs, pepper, onion, ginger, 1/4 cup reserved juice from pineapple and salt. Divide turkey mixture into 4 equal parts and form into patties. Grill, broil or cook in a frying pan over medium until cooked through. The last few minutes of cooking, place pineapple over heat to grill. Place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each patty when warm. Spread teriyaki sauce and light mayonnaise on buns and top with burgers and pineapple.
