Instructions

In a large bowl, combine turkey, feta, sun dried tomato, spinach and seasonings into a mixing bowl. Mix until just combined.
Form patties and place onto a cookie sheet. Once all patties are formed, cook immediately or refrigerate for up to 24 hours before cooking.
GRILL: Over a hot grill heated to 400°F, grill burgers for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until cooked through, with an internal temperature of 165°F.
STOVETOP: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the turkey patties and let them cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through, with an internal temperature of 165°F.
Immediately after cooking, wrap turkey burgers in foil and let them rest for 5 minutes. This will make them extra juicy.
Serve turkey burgers on buns with desired toppings.

Notes

**If you buy the sun-dried tomatoes in the jar, make sure and squeeze out the excess oil using a paper towel.

Storage:

Fridge: Store any leftover turkey burgers in the fridge. You can seal them into food storage bags or airtight containers. They’ll keep for 3 – 4 days.

Freeze: Wrap turkey burgers with saran wrap or foil and then place in a freezer friendly ziplock bag. Freeze leftover Greek turkey burgers for up to three months. Thaw in the fridge before reheating.
