Greek Turkey Burgers

I've had a few people ask me about it so I finally got around to posting this TO DIE FOR turkey burger recipe! It has so much flavor and the best part - it felt like a cheat meal and it wasn't. Not to mention, Trevor actually liked it! Double win :) I'm definitely adding this recipe to my monthly (if not weekly) meal plan. Try it and I know you'll love it - especially if you love Greek food!



Turkey Burger Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup grated zucchini, squeezed
  • 1 1/2 lbs 93% lean ground turkey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, minced
  • 1 T oregano
  • 3/4 tsp sea salt
  • 3/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/3 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
Tzadiziki Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup cucumber, grated and peeled
  • 1 tsp white wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp dill (I left this out because I forgot to buy some!)
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
Greek Salad Ingredients
  • 1 cucumber, peeled & diced
  • 2 medium tomatoes, diced
  • 1/4 red onion, sliced (or diced depending on how you like it!)
  • 1/3 cup Kalamata olives (I forgot to buy these so I used regular black olives)
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • Sea salt to taste
  • 1 T Feta cheese, crumbled
Instructions
  • 1
    Grate the zucchini and then squeeze the moisture out with paper towels. It's crazy how much more moisture it has than I thought!

    In large bowl, combine all of the Turkey Burger ingredients and mix well.
  • 3
    Divide into 6 equal patties.
  • 4
    Cook burgers on medium heat, about 5 minutes per side or until no longer pink in the middle.
Greek Salad Directions
  • Combine everything and mix it up! Refrigerate until you serve :)
Tzadziki Direction's
Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. I topped my burger with it and it was literally melt in your mouth goodness!
