RICE AND APPLE HOMEMADE TURKEY BURGERS
(8 servings)
1/4 cup long grain white rice
salt and pepper
1 lb/450 g lean ground turkey
1 small cooking apple, peeled, cored, and grated
1 small onion, chopped finely
1 garlic clove, chopped finely
1 tsp ground sage
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp ground allspice
nonstick cooking spray
DIRECTIONS:
Cook the rice in a large pan of boiling salted water for about 10 minutes, or until tender. Drain, rinse under cold water then drain well again.
Put cooked rice and the remaining ingredients in a large bowl and mix well together. With wet hands, shape the mixture into 8 thick burgers.
Spray a large, nonstick skillet with cooking spray, add the burgers, and cook for about 10 minutes, turning them over several times, until they are golden brown. Remove from the skillet and serve while hot.

Do most grocery stores carry cooking apples? And if not will any other kind of apple work?

cooking apples are any kind of apple that holds up well to cooking and doesn't get mushy, generally granny smith are the best, but I have also used Macintosh, Fuji and Gala apples. Any grocery store should carry Granny Smith (green) and Macintosh apples.

Thanks Shelly! I made these and they were great. I used ground chicken because that is what was on sale at the grocery. Even my carnivore bf loved them ( he ate 3 in one sitting)! Have you experimented with other spices for different flavors? Have you ever used an egg white to help hold them together better (I am obviously not a seasoned chef...)? I will be making these again!
