Celery and blue cheese dressing help tame the hot sauce on this turkey burger recipe. For an even lighter version, pass on the buns and serve the burgers with lettuce leaves, sliced onion and chopped tomato. —Mary Pax-Shipley, Bend, Oregon

Ingredients

2 tablespoons Louisiana-style hot sauce, divided
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 pound lean ground turkey
4 whole wheat hamburger buns, split
1 cup shredded lettuce
2 celery ribs, chopped
2 tablespoons fat-free blue cheese salad dressing

Directions

In a large bowl, combine 1 tablespoon hot sauce with the cumin, chili powder, garlic, salt and pepper. Add turkey; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into four 1/2-in.-thick patties.

In a large nonstick skillet, cook burgers over medium heat 4-6 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 165°.
Serve burgers on buns with lettuce, celery, salad dressing and remaining hot sauce.
