Skewered Burgers

• 1 lb lean ground beef
• 12 cup rolled oats (if you prefer, you can use whole wheat bread crumbs instead, this will give it a finer texture)
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 egg (beaten)
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 garlic clove, minced (or 1 teaspoon dry granulated garlic)
• 1 teaspoon basil
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 4 small pita bread, cut in half (don't use the mini pitas!)
• 3 tablespoons low-fat plain yogurt
• 3 tablespoons light mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon chives, chopped finely (or you can also use the dried stuff, same amount)

1. Soak 8 wooden skewers for at least 10 minutes to prevent them from burning.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the beef, oats, egg, onion, water , garlic, basil, oregano, and thyme.
3. Divide into 8 equal portions and mould each of the balls into an oval shape around the skewers.
4. Grill for about 8-10 minutes or until no longer pink, turning only once!
5. Serve the burger with the pita.
6. You can put it on a bed of lettuce first if you want a little something extra.
7. Mix together the yogurt, mayonnaise and chives.
8. Serve a dollop with the pitas.
9. Goes great served with a lettuce and tomato salad.
