Patties

1. In a medium bowl, combine salt, parsley, basil and jam.
2. Crumble ground Italian sausage and turkey over mixtures; gently combine the ingredients well.
3. Shape meat into six 5-inch wide patties; refrigerate.

1. Grill patties 4 to 6 minutes per side or until juices run clear. Toast the rolls, if desired.

Alan’s Kitchen Tip: To toast the rolls: spray the inside of each roll with no-stick cooking spray. Place the rolls (cut side down) around the outer edges of the cooking grate; grill until golden brown.
