Mmmm mouthwatering turkey sliders...

This simple summertime recipe is perfect for sliders (mini burgers) – it makes about eight small (2.5 oz) burgers.  For buns I like to cut hot dog buns into thirds but you can also slice and toast a baguette for a continental feeling!

1 pound lean ground turkey
1/2 small white onion, chopped
1/2 red or yellow bell pepper, chopped
1 jalepeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 tsp coarse salt
1 tsp soy sauce

Break up the turkey into small clumps in a large bowl.  Add the peppers, oninon and garlic and carefully fold the ingedients by hand – just until they are evenly mixed.  Sprinkle salt and soy sauce evenly and fold a few more times.  Cover and refrigerate 10-20* minutes to allow the mixture to marinate.  When finished marinating, fire up your grill and shape the patties into 2-inch balls (roughy between a tennis ball and golf ball), then squash slightly – you don’t want them rolling out of the buns later!  Grill away!  Top with some Savory Carrot Garnish and Homemade Mayonnaise.

*This is a minimum – you can always marinate more, though more than 12 hours isn’t recommended.
