Turkey Apple Burgers

YUM! And 99% fat free, according to Rachel Ray. I saw this on her show the other day and was so inspired I went out and bought ground turkey breast. It sounds weird to include apples but it makes these REALLY incredible!!! (Try the cranberry mayo idea too--see the recipe instructions!)

Great versatile recipe! The first night I made this recipe using only 1lb turkey, everything else as listed except substituting 1/4 tsp cayenne for salt. Instead of hamburger shapes, I molded 2/3 of the mix into 6 "flat" hot dogs and grilled them along with onion slices. We put the "turkey burger dogs" on the buns topped with the grilled onions, thin slices of tomato & jalapeno, and mustard. My DH and I both loved them! Great leftover, and very moist. The next night I took the remaining 1/3 mix and added 1/4 cup cracker crumbs and one egg. PUt it into 6x4" pyrex loaf dish and microwaved the "turkey loaf" for 2 minutes on high, and 4 minutes on 30% (let it sit 3 minutes). Topped it with marinara sauce and parmesan cheese for a second dinner. We love it also. The apple and veggies in this mix keep it very moist. Thanks for a great recipe!

    These were pretty good. The taste reminded me of Thanksgiving. I will make again but maybe play with the spices a little.

    My husband was a Doubting Thomas when he saw me chopping apples for turkey burgers, but he loved these. I sautéed the onions, celery and apples in a bit of olive oil before mixing with the ground turkey, as I don't care for the bite of raw onion. The flavors of these burgers melded well together. I loved the cranberry mayo, but hubby isn't a cranberry sauce fan. He poured bbq sauce over his burger and devoured 3 of them. I had forgotten to pick up english muffins, and just used regular burger buns, but will make a point of trying the toasted muffins in the future. Hubby would like me to use this recipe to make meatballs and serve them as an appy with bbq sauce. Mmmmmm.

    Wow, these were great!! I used only half the onion and apple and didn't tell my family it was ground turkey with apples. Even my picky children liked them. Oiling the pan is not necessary as the meat had enough moisture for the cooking process. This recipe is going into my family recipe box. Thanks for the great and different idea!!!
