Eggplant Turkey Burger

This was pretty good!!  I really liked the burger with the slice of cheese :)  Felt like I was cheating!

Fixate - Serves 4: 1.5 green, 1 red, 1 blue

Ingredients:
12oz ground lean turkey breast
1 onion - 1/2 sliced and 1/2 chopped
2 large egg whites
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1 medium eggplant, peeled and sliced into 8 rounds
1 medium pepper, sliced
1 teaspoon olive oil
4 slices muenster cheese (4oz)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Preheat grill or broiler to high.

Combine turkey, 1/2 onion (chopped), egg whites, parsley, and hot sauce in a medium bowl; mix well.  Form turkeys into 4 patties.

Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side until no longer pink in middle.  Set aside - keep warm.

Brush 1/2 onion (sliced), eggplant, and bell pepper with oil.  Grill for 2- 3 minutes on each side.

Place a slide of eggplant on each plate.  Top with patty, slice of onion, slice of pepper, slice of cheese.  Sprinkle with vinegar and top with 2nd eggplant slice.
