Introduction

This is a favorite hamburger recipe my neighbor taught me when I was a little girl. The mixture puts alot of flavor into the patty itself, so most people don't feel a need to add condiments to the sanwich when eating. The original recipe calls for ground hamburger, but I found ground turkey to be a great healthy alternative, without subsituting any of the flavor. Enjoy!

Ingredients

    1 lb- Ground Turkey
    1 Egg
    1 Slice- Wheat Bread (crumbled into breadcrumbs)
    1/4 cup- Dehydrated Chopped Onion
    2 tbsp- Tomato Catsup
    1 tbsp- Yellow Mustard
    1 tsp- Salt
    1 tsp- Pepper

Directions

Preheat stove or grill on medium heat. (If using stove, cook on a non-stick skillet.)

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and use hands to work bread, egg, and other ingredients evenly throughout the meat. (Salt, Pepper, Catsup, and Mustard can be increased or decreased according to taste preference.)

Form the meat into balls about 3-4 inches in diameter and then flatten in 1/2 inch thick patties. Place patties a few inches apart in pan or on grill and then cover with a lid. Cook meat for about 4 minutes on each side, or until meat is thoroughly cooked in the middle, but not burned on the outside.

One pound of meat yields about 5-6 patties.

*Note- The nutritional value of this recipe excludes bread or hamburger buns for making a complete sandwich.
