Turkey Burgers with Cranberry-Apple Relish



This is definitely one of the best turkey burgers I've had. The flavors are reminiscent of Thanksgiving! The burger is juicy and moist and the topping add just the right contrast in flavors!

serves 4 ( 8 points +)

  • 1/2 c. fresh cranberries
  • 1/2 c. chopped apple
  • 1tsp. grated orange rind
  • 2 T. fresh orange juice
  • 3/8 tsp. salt, divided
  • 1/2 c. finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 c. plain bread crumbs
  • 1/4 c. fresh, flat leaf parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. dried sage
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 1 lb. ground turkey
  • 4 slices Sargento reduced-fat Provolone cheese
  • 4 low-calorie hamburger buns ( such as Healthy Life)
  • baby spinach leaves


Place first 5 ingredients in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped.
Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add onions and cook 3 minutes or until tender. Cool slightly.
Place onions in a medium bowl with bread crumbs and the next 4 ingredients. ( through turkey). Form into 4 patties.
Spray the skillet again. Cook burgers until juices run clear, turning once. Add cheese and cook until melted. Place spinach leaves on the bottom bun. Top with burger and relish.
