Low Calorie Easy Turkey Burgers Sliders Recipe

When I think of sports and parties I think of burgers, hot dogs, and ribs, and these burgers are perfect for when you are looking for a great game day meal, without burning through your calorie budget for the day.  This is a classic example of changing a few ingredients in the recipe, and coming out with a meal that is just as good as the original, with less calories!  I actually found this recipe from The Chew Recipe Book. It is one of my favorite go-to recipe books, and I watch the show everyday! Amazon has a great price for it too!

Here is the super easy recipe to make these Low Calorie Easy Turkey Burgers Sliders (with a special sauce!)

Ingredients:

For the burgers:
1 lb ground turkey
1 onion, grated
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1 egg
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1 tsp cumin
salt and pepper to taste
1 pack buns. (I used whole wheat buns)

For the sauce:
3/4 cup reduced fat mayo
1 1/2 tablespoon chopped green onions
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon OJ
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon chopped ginger

Combine all ingredients for sauce in a bowl and mix, set in the fridge to chill.
Combine turkey meat, onions, green onions, panko, cumin, s&p and egg in a bowl and mix until combined well. (I used my hands for this part)
Mold the mixture into small patties. (slightly bigger than your bun because they will shrink a bit when cooking)
Grill the patties on Med-high heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked completely through.
Optional step, split your buns open and butter them slightly, stick them in the oven for about 3 minutes.
Add your burger, sauce, and any other fixings and enjoy!
