Herbed chicken and apple burgers
Adding grated apple to chicken burgers not only gives a fruity flavour that complements the meat and herbs, but also lightens up the meaty patties and provides fibre. Served in buns with honey mustard and fresh watercress, these are a great alternative to beef burgers.

Preparation method
Prep: 1 hour 20 minutes | Cook: 20 minutesTurkey mince will make burgers that are even lower in fat than those made with chicken mince. * Use baby spinach leaves instead of the watercress leaves. * For a creamy, more savoury alternative to honey mustard, mix 2 tbsp Dijon mustard with 97% fat-free mayonnaise. * Use wholemeal breadcrumbs and wholemeal burger buns to increase the fibre content.
Health pointsSmall amounts of honey are perfectly acceptable for those with diabetes. The Glycaemic Index of honey is about half that of glucose.
