1

Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat.
2

Mix turkey, barbecue sauce and chilies. Shape mixture into 4 patties, each about 1 inch thick.
3

Grill patties covered 4 to 6 inches from medium coals 14 to 16 minutes, turning once, until turkey is no longer pink in center. About 1 minute before burgers are done, top each with cheese slice. Grill until cheese is melted. Serve on buns.

Whole-grain hamburger buns give you more fiber than white. Look for the words “whole wheat flour” on the label; many “wheat” breads are simply white bread with added color.
Turn up the heat by using 2 or 3 chopped fresh jalapeño chilies instead of the canned chilies.
