I tried to do the best I can with the photos, but believe me when I say these burgers taste a million times better than they look in these pictures.
My mother-in-law made these burgers in February when we went to visit and they were amazing! One bite and I knew I would be making these when we got home. They are so simple but so flavorful and a great way to get some extra greens in.
The other great thing about this recipe is that you can put the patties together in advanced and freeze them if you wanted to make them on a weekend but eat them later in the week. Just defrost and cook. Who doesn't love a 5 minute meal on a busy week night?
These have become a regular recipe in our house, and I'm sure they will in yours too! Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 lbs. ground turkey
- 4-6 oz baby spinach
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 oz feta cheese
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: Fry sauce, avocado, sautéed onions, lettuce, tomato
Instructions:
- In a large pan heat a little oil over medium heat. Sauté mined garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add spinach to garlic and mix. Let spinach wilt just a few minutes, until dark but not completely wilted. Remove from pan and set aside to cool.
- Once spinach is cooled completely, place on a cutting board and give it a rough chop. Place in a big mixing bowl with ground turkey and feta cheese.
- Add spices. Mix until all ingredients are combined but don't over mix or patties will become tough.
- Divide into four patties. If you're cooking the same day, let them sit in the fridge for a few minutes before cooking. If you're freezing them, wrap each individually in parchment paper and put in a freezer bag.
- Cook patties on stove top over medium heat or on grill (if you're lucky enough to have a yard and a grill. And if you are, invite me over! I'll bring the burgers!) until meat is cooked through.
- Top with my favorite amazing fry sauce, onions and whatever else your heart desires!
