It was such a beautiful day today that I knew it was the right day to break out our new grill at the apartment. We thought that turkey burgers would be the perfect option. After looking through a bunch of recipes online I decided that we should try Spinach Goat Cheese Turkey Burgers.
The recipe is very simple and adapted from Allrecipes.com
Spinach Goat Cheese Turkey Burgers (Yields 4 burgers)
1 1/4 lbs. lean ground turkey
5 ounces (1/2 box) frozen chopped spinach
2 ounces plain goat cheese crumbles
1 T. no salt added garlic and herb seasoning mix
4 Deli Thins or Slimwich buns
Thaw spinach and remove excess water by squeezing by hand and/or between paper towels.
Mix together turkey, goat cheese and spinach and sprinkle seasoning mix on top. Mix together by hand to combine ingredients and distribute seasoning.
Form well-packed patties.
Grill patties for approximately 15 minutes until they are cooked through, flipping once – or more as needed.
Serve patties on buns.
For us, the burgers alone were perfectly moist and delicious but if you’d like you can dress them up with a sauce – maybe pesto, tomato bruschetta or even spicy mustard or barbecue sauce – whatever you like.
What is your favorite non-beef burger to make?
What’s your favorite grilled food?
Favorite burger is definitely black bean! Grilled food is asparagus… yum. Yours looks delicious!
Our asparagus was stringy. Not the best, haha. I love black bean burgers too! Do you make your on or buy the patties? Or both? I do both.
I definitely love black bean burgers, but with a bf that is totally afraid of black beans, I usually roll with turkey! I can’t wait to try these!
P.S. Your burgers are perfectly shaped!!!
Thanks! I formed them with my own two hands – Todd was proud.
How can he be afraid of black beans? I could seriously live on black beans alone. Has he ever tried them? I’m perplexed, haha.
these burgers look delish. i am totally trying them this weekend, looks like a memorial day winner!
I hope you like them!
