Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    16 ounces 93% lean ground turkey
    1/4 cup whole-wheat breadcrumbs
    1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
    1 egg white
    1 tablespoon chopped mint
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    Cooking spray

Tips

Overworking the mixture can result in tough burgers.


Directions

Mix all ingredients until just combined.

Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Divide the meat mixture into 4 round balls. Flatten the burgers with your hand and press your thumb in the center of each burger (this keeps the meat from rising too high as it cooks).
Cook the burgers 5-6 minutes per side, flipping once, until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.

    My family loved this recipe. I thought it was a little dry so the last time I made it I put about a half cup of fat free sour cream and 6 peeled slices of cucumber in a food processor. I added about two tablespoons to the mixture and then used some on the finished burger. I added red pepper flake - 1/9/10

    Very yummy! My kids and husband loved it. Instead of the pita I used the new 100 cal Orowheat sandwich thins. I also used an avocado and spread it instead of mayo and added some tomato and lettuce. These will be on our menu again! - 4/20/10

    I minced some mushrooms, onion, and garlic, and threw it into the mix before cooking the patties. Everyone in my house loves them! - 6/11/10
