Zucchini Turkey Burgers!

I found this recipe at SkinnyTaste.com and I had to try it!...I'm not a great cook so I was VERY surprised how good these turned out! They are super easy and make for a great meal prep meal for dinners and lunches :)

Ingredients:

1 package of ground turkey

1 zucchini (grated)

1 Tbsp of chopped red onion

1/4 Cup of whole wheat or low sodium bread crumbs

1 Clove garlic (grated)

Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Pinch of pepper

*I tried adding Cilantro the 2nd time I made these :) Spice it up!

Tomato Salad:

Chopped tomatoes

Chopped red onion

1 Tbsp olive oil

Splash of balsamic vinegar

*cubed mozzarella bites optional 

Directions:

-Grate the Zucchini and Garlic ----Ok funny confession --- First time I peeled my entire zucchini because I didn't read the directions correctly...didn't come out so well...oh my novice chef skills!

Trust me, Grate it- it's better!!

-Chop red onion

-Mix in bread crumbs, pepper, salt, chopped onion in a large bowel and mix

-Make into 5-6 small patties on a large plate and flatten out

-Heat a skillet or large pan on the stove to medium heat and spray with non-stick spray ( I use Coconut Oil Spray)

-Place about 3 patties in the skillet and cook 4-5 mins on each side

-You can make the Tomato Salad for the top like I did using chopped red onions, tomatoes, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. 

-Or you can simply add whole wheat bun, ketchup, or sliced avocados :) 

ENJOY!!
