Greek Lamb Burgers



Greek Lamb Burgers
variation on a "Cooking Light" recipe - serves 6
So, somewhere in the middle of her first bite, Jessica was inspired enough by this burger to plan a summer barbeque around it. This really is an awesome burger. One great thing about having a food processor, is I did not have to commit to buying 1.25 pounds of expensive ground turkey. I bought turkey cutlets, ground what I needed and froze the remaining cutlets for some quick and simple dinner in my future...

2	Cook on grill or on stove in a seasoned iron skillet. Let stand 5 minutes.
3	Place one patty in each pita half; drizzle with Tzatziki sauce, add in cucumber slices, tomato, lettuce, thinly sliced red onion or more feta cheese as desired.
