Taken from a Healthy Meals in Minutes card
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs ground turkey
3 tablespoons minced green onions
1 teaspoon soy sauce, reduced sodium
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons dijon-style mustard
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 whole grain buns, lightly toasted
6 leaves green leaf lettuce
scallion, brushes (to garnish, green onion)
Directions:
1. Preheat the broiler. Line a broiler pan with foil.
2. In a large bowl, combine the turkey, green onion, soy sauce, ginger, mustard, and pepper. Mix well. Shape mixture into 6 patties.
3. Place patties on rack in pre- pared pan. Broil 2 inches from the heat until patties are cooked through. about 5 minutes per side.
4. Place the buns on serving plates; place lettuce on buns and top with burgers. Garnish with scallion brushes and serve.
5. VARIATION : The typical burger condiments-ketchup, yellow mustard, relish, and pickles-are high in sodium. For a change of pace, try topping burgers with healthy alternatives such as tomato, red onion, cucumber, bean sprouts, red and green bell pepper, and a little homemade salsa. Also, make wise bread choices-English muffins and whole-wheat pita pockets are low-fat options.
