Turkey Burgers

2 lbs extra lean ground turkey
1 med yellow onion minced, here i am thinking a slap chop might be a good investment as i cry my way through mincing
2 tbsp spicy brown mustard or dijon, different mustards would be a way to change flavor of burgers a little.
1 tbsp poultry magic seasoning (recipe said Mrs. dash but I didn't have it) again, different seasoning blends would be a way to change it up.
2 tsp garlic powder
recipe also includes red or green bell pepper , 1/2c chopped but i don't like bell peppers!

preheat grill, brush with a little oil, then divide burgers into your portion amounts. shape into patties, place on grill. spray the back of a spatula with nonstick spray and flatten burgers out. cook 5 minutes a side or until done through

I like turkey burgers because they are easy to heat up in the microwave and eat while I drive....

if you made 6 equal burgers the nutrition info would be : (according to original recipe)

216 calories per burger
10g fat - not sure that is accurate, my turkey was only 8g total for the recipe, so really less than 2g per burger.

30g protein
