Spinach and Feta Turkey Burgers
Spinach and Feta Turkey Burgers combine lean ground turkey with chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, egg, parsley, and garlic for a savory patty with a moist texture and fresh herb flavors. Grilled until cooked through, these burgers offer a flavorful alternative to traditional beef burgers and can be served on buns, lettuce wraps, or salads.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey lean
- 1 cup spinach baby, chopped
- ¼ cup feta cheese crumbled
- 3 Tablespoons egg or 1 egg, white
- 2 Tablespoons parsley or 1 teaspoon dried, fresh, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon salt sea salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, chopped spinach, crumbled feta, egg whites, parsley, garlic, sea salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated.
- Form the mixture into 4–5 equal-sized patties using your hands.
- Grill the patties for 6–8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the burgers are no longer pink in the center.
- Serve immediately on buns, in lettuce wraps, or over a salad with your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Store cooked burgers in an airtight container for up to 5 days, placing parchment paper between stacked patties to prevent sticking.
- For freezing, freeze patties individually on a lined baking sheet until solid, then transfer to freezer-safe bags; store up to 3 months.
- Reheat burgers on the stovetop skillet over medium heat for even warming or bake in the oven at 350°F for 10–15 minutes.
- Microwaving is fastest but may soften the burger texture.
