Spinach and Feta Turkey Burgers

Happy Thanksgiving!! Here is a great turkey recipe!


While rummaging through some healthy food blogs, I stumbled upon a spinach and feta turkey burger recipe. When I showed it to Michael he liked the idea so much he wanted to make them next time we were hungry. Just a couple of hours later we were chomping down on our own simpler version of the burger. It was AMAZING!! We were both SO happy with it and it was so easy to make!


Ingredients
1 package of ground turkey
1-2 cups frozen spinach
1/2 cup of feta
2 medium sized cloves of garlic pressed (keep pressing the garlic until nothing comes out anymore)


We combined all ingredients using our hands to mix them in well.


Next, we formed the mixture into 3 large burgers and grilled them on the George Foreman. Michael taught me the way you know a turkey burger is cooked all the way, firm, but not dry, juicy when you cut it open, and done through the middle.
We decided to make some of our guacamole to eat with the burgers. It was amazing and we definitely recommend it!


Side note - this could make a great appetizer if you make the mixture into mini burgers and have a dipping sauce like honey mustard, guacamole, or cranberry sauce.
