Apple-Maple Turkey Burgers and French Fries

Sam and I didn't have turkey burgers till we were married! I think we were both scared because they sounded uber-healthy, and therefore, not very tasty.... ha ha! Well, these turkey burgers are out of this world! The secret is the maple-dijon sauce. This will make 4 large burgers and you can make it under 30 minutes. Recipe courtesy Sandra Lee from Semi-Homemade:

Ingredients
For Maple-Dijon Sauce:
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons real maple syrup
For Burgers:
1 1/4 pounds ground turkey breast
1/4 cup real bacon bits
1/2 cup chunky applesauce (Britt's note: Buy them in the individual containers and use one container per recipe!)
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
2 tablespoons real maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Hamburger Buns
Hamburger condiments

Directions
Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking.
For Maple-Dijon Sauce: In a small bowl, stir to combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and 2 tablespoons maple syrup; set aside.
For Turkey Burgers: In a medium bowl, mix together all ingredients for burgers. Wet hands to prevent sticking and shape into 4 patties. (Britt's note: have the husband do this part so you don't have to get your hands dirty - I love to cook but not a fan of touching raw meat)
Place burgers on hot oiled grill for 5 to 7 minutes per side or until done or cook them in a large skillet in 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium high heat.
Serve on buns with traditional burger condiments and a dollop of maple-Dijon sauce. (Britt's revision - SOAK them in sauce!)

Britt's Homemade French Fries

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil.
Cut the potatoes into wedges and put them on the baking sheet.
Coat potatoes in oil. Season with as much grill seasoning and Lawry's salt as you like.
Pop them in the oven for 10-15 min. Flip the wedges. Add additional seasoning.
Put them back in the oven for 10 minutes, or until they are done as you like them. (I like mine CRISPY!!)

Enjoy! I picked this recipe to open up this blog because its one that Sam is always asking for - so it must be good!
