Here’s a burger that will be a hit whether you’re fixing it for yourself or you and a friend. Barbara of Pennsylvania adds a savory sauce to these juicy, slightly sweet burgers
Yield: 2 servings.
Ingredients:
3 garlic cloves, peeled
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons mayonnaise

1-1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash pepper
1/2 pound lean ground turkey
2 red lettuce leaves
2 slices tomato
2 slices sweet onion
Directions:
Place garlic on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Drizzle with 1
teaspoon oil. Wrap foil around garlic. Bake at 425° for 15-20
minutes or until garlic is softened. Cool for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and pesto; set aside.
In another small bowl, combine Italian seasoning and remaining oil;
brush over bread. Set aside.
Squeeze softened garlic into a large bowl. Add the honey, mustard,
salt and pepper. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape
