FRESH TURKEY BURGERS

1 lb. ground turkey
1 c. Quaker oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
3/4 c. finely chopped onion
3/4 c. finely chopped red or green bell pepper
1/2 c. shredded zucchini, about 1 sm.
1/4 c. catsup
2 cloves garlic, crushed
6 whole grain rolls, split, toasted

Lightly spray rack of broiler pan with vegetable oil cooking spray or oil lightly. Combine first 7 ingredients; mix well. Shape into 6 burgers. Place on rack of prepared pan or over medium hot coals or outdoor grill 6 inches from heat. Broil 7-9 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Serve on buns. Garnish with lettuce and sliced tomato, if desired

Here are the indgredients, minus the onion, I forgot to get the onion out...

put the ground lean, all turkey breast in a bowl, and add all the other indredients..(sorry no pictures, they came out blurry and then my hands got real goopy)

form into patty's, this can be done ahead of time.....

you can broil in the oven, or better yet get your hot coals ready, and brush the grate with oil...

put the turkey burgers over the hottest part of the coals and cook about 2 minutes...

then turn over and cook for another minute...and then...

move to the outside of the ring of coals...or off the coals, letting them cook with indirect heat until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees....remember the thermometer you bought? now is a good time to use it...you don't want to overcook them...but want them to be done....

while they were cooking I made this chipolte mayonaise..just 1 cup of mayo and just 1 small chopped chipolte, from a can...and stir...

the chipolte gives the burger a great flavor! and the zucchini keeps the turkey burger moist...spread the bun with the mayonaise and place burger and onion, tomato, and lettuce...
