Kale and Feta Turkey Burgers
May 30, 2025 07:47 AM
Perfectly juicy and tender turkey burgers made even better with an addition of sauteed kale, onion, garlic and a generous amount of crumbled feta cheese. I also included a quick and easy feta cream sauce to pair with the patties.
Many people try to avoid ordering turkey burgers in the restaurant because they tend to be dry and/or crumbly. Not my burger!! Not to toot my horn, but I make amazing turkey burgers that are always juicy and tender. I have a few ingredients and techniques that learned and tested over the years to make sure of that. Now lets go try them.
Turkey burgers are not at all plain and flavorless, you know! You can add a lot of bold flavors and explore many flavor combinations. Since ground turkey is a mild tasting meat, it can be paired with many different spices and flavoring ingredients. This kale and feta flavor combination is my latest and favorite! These burgers have Mediterranean flavor notes, they are light, moist, and flavorful!
