Heart-Healthy Summer Recipe: Terrific Turkey Burgers
Barbecue season = best season. There’s nothing like juicy ribs and sweet saucy chicken coming off the grill… or is there?
Substituting beef with turkey is an easy, low-in-sodium option that's just as good. Try out this spin on a turkey burger for your next barbecue!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 package (10 oz) frozen spinach
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons pepper
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- Provolone cheese to melt
Directions:
- Take turkey out of package and place in mixing bowl, add seasonings and olive oil, and mix together.
- Defrost package of spinach until warm, wringing out any excess water. Once thawed, add spinach to turkey mixture and mix again.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake for 12 minutes, 6 minutes on each side, (or until almost cooked all the way through). These can also be put on the grill for a charred smoky flavor. Once there’s about 2 minutes left, add slice of provolone and cook until melted.
- Take out of oven, or off of grill, and enjoy!
