Delicious And Guilt-Free Garden Burgers
These Guilt-Free Garden Burgers are low in fat, low in sodium, and a healthy alternative for your regular burgers.
Ingredients
1 pound ground turkey (minced turkey)
1 medium egg
½ cup oats
¼ cup white onion - chopped
¼ cup green pepper (green capsicum) - chopped
¼ cup carrots - chopped
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce- 1 ½ teaspoons seasoning - Mrs Dash – Garlic and Herb is my favorite flavor for this meal
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.
- Divide the mixture into 6 equal parts and roll each part into a ball, and press into patties. This recipe makes 6 perfect patties!
- Fry in a non-stick pan on one side for about 4 minutes at 300°F (medium heat). Flip over. Fry until cooked through, about 8 minutes total.
Notes
Better yet, put them out on the grill or on an inside electric griddle. The recipe is close to a meatloaf recipe. The egg helps to hold it all together, the oats cook up so that it mimics the meat and the vegetables add flavor while acting as a hidden source of vitamins. When cooking turkey meat, note that it does not have much grease…much healthier for those watching their cholesterol and triglycerides. I forgot to add that you can substitute any vegetables that you want, even those grown from your own garden! Some other suggestions are any other types of peppers, shredded zucchini, or celery.
