What a fun time tonight at Meyerson JCC, making these turkey sliders!

The YP's (Young Professionals) had a fill of these sliders made with onions, herbs, olive oil and oats. Yes! Rolled oats and oat bran, both!

Not only was it low cal (we serve them on zucchini slices as the "bun"), it's packed with fiber.

Uh-huh, no bun needed. The oatmeal gives us the good carbs.

It's in there!

Yum!!

Of course, served with all the condiments and arugula or spinach, sliced onions and grape tomatoes makes it complete.

1 lb ground turkey

½ cup oat bran & 1/2 cup oat meal

1 onion, chopped

1 cup mushrooms, chopped

3 cloves garlic, chopped

½ cup parsley, chopped

1 tbsp Italian seasoning mix

1 tbsp olive oil

1 egg

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Ground mixed pepper

 

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.

Shape into 2 inch ball, flatten.  

Bake in 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes or until brown, or cook on hot grill for 5 minutes on each side.

Makes approximately 24 sliders.
