Kalamata-Feta Turkey Burgers Preparation

In large bowl, mix ground turkey, olives, cheese, oregano, oil and black pepper until well blended. (The mixture will be mushy, but will set well when cooked.) Spray a cold skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat until hot. Divide turkey mix into equal portions, form patties, and lay gently into hot skillet to maintain a nice burger shape. Turn burgers after about 8 minutes, and cook on other side for an additional 8-10 minutes. Place each burger on one of the buns, add lettuce, onion and tomato slices, and serve with condiments (yellow mustard is great for me).
