Greek Turkey Burgers w/Yogurt Sauce

Yogurt Sauce:

1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped cucumber

Burger:

1 lb. ground turkey
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper

4 whole wheat buns

In sauce bowl, mix yogurt sauce ingredients and set in fridge until burgers are ready.

The original recipe says to broil the burgers. I thought I'd save time by using our George Foreman grill. Although it did save time, it was slightly on the dry side. So, I'm sure broiling probably holds in much more of the moisture...

Set oven control to broil. In another bowl, mix all the burger ingredients. Shape mixture into four even patties. Broil burgers with tops about 6 inches from the heat for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping patties after 5 minutes. Place burgers on buns and top with yogurt sauce.

Although ours turned out slightly more dry than I would have liked, they were still very delicious! The sauce added the perfect touch! My husband said it tasted almost like a gyro, so if you like gyros... you're set! Enjoy!
