Ingredients:

1     pound         lean ground lamb
2     tablespoons   coarsely-grated onion
2     tablespoons   chopped flat-leaf parsley
1     teaspoon      freshly-grated lemon zest
                    Salt
                    Freshly-ground black pepper
1                   ripe Hass avocado
2     teaspoons     fresh lemon juice
2     tablespoons   plain nonfat yogurt
4                   toasted whole-grain rolls
4                   thick, ripe tomato slices
1/2   cup           alfalfa sprouts

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

Prepare coals for grilling.
Lightly combine the lamb, onion, parsley, lemon zest, salt and pepper; gently form into 4 patties (about 3 1/2 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick).
In a separate bowl, mash the avocado with the lemon juice and yogurt. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve.
Grill the burgers over hot coals, 3 inches from the heat, for about 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare meat.
Serve immediately on toasted rolls topped with the reserved avocado mixture, a tomato slice and alfalfa sprouts.
This recipe yields 4 servings.

Comments: When shopping for avocados, look for the Hass variety � the smaller, dark, bumpy-skinned ones. They're flavorful, with a buttery texture. The large ones from Florida are more watery and less flavorful.
