Preparation

Step 1

Directions:

In a medium bowl combine all slaw ingredients. Mix well, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

In a large bowl, thoroughly mix all burger ingredients. Evenly form into 4 patties about 1/2 inch thick.

Bring a grill sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Grill patties for 5 minutes with the grill cover down.
