Turkey Sliders...it's what's for dinner!





The picture isn't great, but the meal was! The whole fam gave this one a ten! It's not your typical burger-this one has a little flare to it. If you love basil and feta, you'll be in burger heaven!


Turkey Sliders

1 package Pepperidge Farm Slider buns
1 package-about 1.20 pounds lean ground turkey (I used 7% fat)
2/3 cup crumbled feta
1 Tb fresh basil-chopped
(I use Gourmet Garden pictured above. You can find it in the produce section. I freeze it and when I need it for a recipe I let it sit out for about 10 min. to slightly thaw. It's as good as fresh and never goes bad!)
1/4 heaping tsp sea salt
1/4 scant tsp freshly ground pepper

In a bowl, mush ingreds. together with your hands. Be careful not to over mix-it will make them tough. Form into patties -shape and size to your liking. Just remember they shrink considerably! Throw them on whatever grill you've got. I used my electric grill.

These toppings really make these sliders divine!

-Sliced cucumbers-it really adds a nice crunch and flavor!
-Thinly sliced red onions
-Ranch Dressing-I used Hidden Valley Light.
I'm gonna go wipe my mouth from all the excess drooling...excuse me!
