Mint-Cranberry Turkey Burger

This is a great alternative to the traditional burger, leaner and healthier, but with lots of added flavor. 

Ingredients:
1 pound ground turkey
1 cup Panko bread crumbs
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh mint, chopped
3/4 cup dried cranberries
salt and pepper to taste
4 hamburger buns
4 tomato slices
4 lettuce leaves

Maple-Cheese Spread:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 ounces maple syrup

Combine ground turkey, bread crumbs, chopped mint and dried cranberries; mix well and divide into four equal-size patties.

Grill until internal temperature is 165 degrees. Remove from grill.

Mix the cream cheese and maple syrup until smooth.

Toast the buns and spread the cream cheese mixture on bottom bun. Top with burger and garnish with tomato and lettuce.

Serves 4.
