Best Loved Recipes {Glazed Turkey Burger}

Judges: Wes and Abby

Rating: - This sandwich is a keeper!  We over-cooked it a little, but it was so flavorful... and that's saying a lot coming from me. There haven't been too many turkey burgers that I have been able to say that about.  I loved the bits of celery and cranberries in every bite.

Recipe:

1 Tbsp mustard

1 Tbsp cherry, apricot, peach or pineapple preserves {I used apricot}

1/4 c. quick-cooking rolled oats

1/4 c. finely chopped celery

3 Tbsp chopped dried cherries or dried apricots {I used dried cranberries} 

1/4 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. pepper

1 lb. ground turkey or chicken

4 buns, toasted

In med. bowl, combine remaining ingredients.  Shape turkey mixture into four 1/4-inch thick patties.

Serve on toasted buns.  Brush any remaining glaze over burgers.
