Time 17m

Yield 4 burgers, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 rolls (Ciabatta preferred-the small variety for individual sized servings-halved for sandwiches)
1 lb ground turkey
1/3 cup kalamata olive, pitted and diced fine
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
olive oil
salt
1/4-1/2 cup pesto sauce (or more)
2 roasted peppers, sliced (Italian style)
1/4 lb fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced (or presliced variety)
1 tomatoes, sliced into four thick slices

Steps:

  • Combine turkey, olives, and oregano. Mix well. Form into four patties. Season to taste. Drizzle with olive oil.
  • Grill turkey until done. Just prior to being done add cheese so it will melt.
  • Meanwhile toast bread. Spread pesto on the inside of toasted "buns".
  • Place cooked turkey patties on bun and top with tomato and roasted peppers.
  • Enjoy.
