Turn burger right on its head by swapping to lower-fat ground turkey and whipping up a few Asian-inspired toppings. Keep an eye on your instant-read thermometer to cook these turkey burgers to the perfect temperature.

Prep/Cook Time: 25 Minutes, Servings: 4

Ingredients

1 pound uncooked ground turkey breast
1 cup finely chopped fresh mushrooms
¼ cup chopped sweet onion
¼ cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
4 whole-wheat bagel thins, toasted
½ cup shredded napa cabbage

Directions

In a medium bowl, combine the turkey, mushrooms and onion. Form into four ½-inch-thick patties. In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise and hoisin sauce; set aside.
For a charcoal grill, place patties on the grill rack directly over medium coals. Grill, uncovered, for 10 to 13 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into side of each patty registers 165°F, turning once halfway through grilling. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place patties on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.)
For each serving, spread a bagel thin with one-fourth of the mayonnaise mixture. Top with a turkey burger and one-fourth of the napa cabbage.
