Serving Size: 8

Cooking Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 Pounds (lb) ground turkey
• 10 Ounces (oz) box frozen chopped spinach, drained
• 4 Ounces (oz) feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 Large eggs, whisked
• 2 Cloves garlic, minced
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) dried oregano
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) black pepper, ground
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) kosher salt
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) cooking spray, for grilling

Steps

1. Prepare the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grate with cooking spray or olive oil to prevent sticking.
2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, drained spinach, crumbled feta, whisked eggs, minced garlic, oregano, black pepper, and salt. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated, being careful not to overwork the meat.
3. Form Patties: Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty, about 1 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to ensure even cooking.
4. Grill the Patties: Place the patties on the preheated grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) as measured with an instant-read thermometer. This ensures the burgers are cooked through and safe to eat.
5. Serve: Remove the burgers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve on buns or lettuce wraps with your choice of toppings such as lettuce, tomato, and a generous dollop of tzatziki sauce.
