“These are scrumptious! I served them at our last family reunion and they were a huge hit (Uncle Milton had two!). Cranberry sauce with turkey is a match made in heaven.” —Marla Clark of Moriarty, New Mexico
Ingredients:
6 turkey bacon strips, diced and cooked
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1-1/4 pounds extra-lean ground turkey
1 italian turkey sausage link (4 ounces), casing removed
3 slices part-skim mozzarella cheese, cut in half
6 onion rolls, split
6 tablespoons jellied cranberry sauce
6 tablespoons fat-free mayonnaise
6 lettuce leaves
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. Crumble turkey and sausage over mixture and mix well. Shape into six burgers.
2. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 165° and juices run clear. Top with cheese; cook 1-2 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.
3. Toast the rolls; spread warm rolls with cranberry sauce and mayonnaise. Serve burgers on rolls with lettuce. Yield: 6 servings.
