Instructions: 1. Remove stems and finely chop half of the mushroom caps (should have 1 cup); slice the remaining mushroom caps and set aside.

2. In a small saucepan cook the finely chopped mushrooms and garlic in � cup of the broth for 4 to 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in bulgur. Bring to boiling; reduce heat to low.

3. Cook, covered, about 10 minutes or until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed. Cool slightly.

4. Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine the ground turkey, green onion, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper. Add bulgur mixture; mix well. Shape into four �-inch-thick patties.

5. Place patties on the greased rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals. Grill for 14 to 18 minutes or until patties are no longer pink (165 degrees), turning once halfway through grilling.

6. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan cook the sliced mushrooms, covered, in the remaining � cup broth for 4 to 5 minutes or until tender. 7. To serve, if desired, spread mustard on bottom halves of buns. Add burgers, grilled onion slices (if desired), and sliced mushrooms; replace top halves of buns.
