Memorial Day isn't truly Memorial Day without a good cookout. There's nothing like cooking a burger on the grill and enjoying it outside with friends and family. Unfortunately, traditional hamburgers are typically loaded with extra fat and calories that can sabotage your diet. :(
Here's a fun twist on the traditional burger that I found on toneitup.com. These girls never fail to make your favorite "unhealthy" foods, healthy.
Mediterranean Turkey Burgers
makes 4-5 servings
Ingredients
Divide 1 pound of organic low fat ground turkey into 4-5 patties. Next, add in cranberries, feta, garlic & spinach to each patty with your hands. Combine egg whites and olive oil in separate, medium sized bowl. Take 1 patty and dip in the egg mixture the moisture. Once all ingredients are thoroughly combined, form a patty. Grill over medium heat for about 4 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Serve with a whole wheat bun or on portobello mushrooms with your favorite condiments.
