Greek Burgers

Craving for a burger; but afraid of the beef? Here is a great recipe that passes on the beef, but not the great taste. The use of turkey and spices for a taste of the Mediterranean in these Greek burgers is just heavenly. The only disadvantage is that once you tasted one you will want another!

Ingredients:

2 garlic cloves, minced 
3 tablespoons fresh mint, chopped 
1-1/2 cups non/low fat yogurt 
1-1/2 pounds ground turkey, lean 
2-1/4 teaspoons feta cheese, crumbled 
6 pita bread loaves, cut in half 
1-1/2 tomatoes, sliced 
1-1/2 red onions, sliced

Directions:

Combine garlic and mint in a small bowl and mash. Add yogurt, mix and set aside.

Combine turkey and feta cheese in a mixing bowl. Form into 8 patties and sprinkle with pepper. Broil 5-10 minutes per side or until the turkey is cooked through.

Serve in pita bread with tomatoes, onions and yogurt sauce.
