How to Make Turkey Burgers

  1. Crush 1 cup of saltine crackers finely using a rolling pin.
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground turkey, 2 large egg whites, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 1/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and the crushed crackers.
  3. Gently form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties (about 3/4 inch thick).
  4. Cook the patties to your preference: Grill over medium heat for 5-7 minutes per side, or bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or pan-fry in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes per side. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  5. Serve on whole-wheat buns with your favorite low-fat toppings like lettuce, tomato, and onion.
