curried turkey green apple burgers

25 minutes

1 pound ground turkey (93/7 is what i use)
1 granny smith apple, diced
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon curry powder or kitchen king
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons fat free mayo
1 teaspoon minced chipotle (or fresh jalapeno) peppers
whole wheat buns, toasted (wild oats buns are the best!)
lettuce, tomato, onions, sprouts (whatever suits you)

combine first four ingredients and form in to four our five patties. heat a large skillet over medium heat. once hot, add oil. cook patties 3-4 minutes per side. while the burgers are cooking, combine mayo and peppers in small bowl and toast buns. place a tablespoon of dressing and whatever other garnish you like on the toasted bun. add the burger and enjoy. i serve this with sweet potato wheels or a salad.

this is a recipe that i got from zorba pastor's "to your health" on npr about 5 years ago. it has remained a staple in our house ever since..well, in the times that we have been meat eaters! yum yum.
