Ingredients
1 package Jenny O Extra Lean ground turkey1 medium zucchini, shredded and squeezed1 carrot, shredded and squeezed1/2 medium onion, shredded and squeezed1 slice of bread2 - 4 tbsp low fat buttermilk1 large egg1 tbsp A-1 steak sauce1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce3 tbsp each of fresh oregano, thyme & parsley, minced1/2 tsp nutmeg1 tsp white pepper1/4 tsp kosher salt
Makes 8 burger patties
1. Cut bread into very small cubes and mix with buttermilk in a small bowl. Set aside to soak.
2. Shred zucchini, carrots and onion and press into paper towels to dry them somewhat.
3. In a medium bowl lightly whisk together the egg, A-1 sauce, herbs, nutmeg, pepper and salt. Add veggie mixture, turkey and bread mixture. LIGHTLY mix together just until ingredients are incorporated.
4. I like to let the mixture sit for a bit while I spray with Pam and heat a frying pan over medium to medium low heat.
5. Gently form 8 patties and, in two or more batches, cook in pan, covered, making sure that the patties aren't at too high of a heat. The temp is too high they are losing juices. Cook for about 4 minutes on each side depending on the thickness of the burgers. I make mine about 1/2 inch thick.
6. Let rest under foil for a few minutes before serving.
