What a Burger!

istock_turkeyburger

This recipe can be used for burgers or cooked in a loaf pan like a traditional style meat loaf.

Ingredients

1 ½ pounds ground organic free range turkey
¼ cup minced onion
¾ cups coarsely ground oatmeal (put oatmeal in blender and pulse until the oatmeal is the consistency of bread crumbs)
1 egg
¼ cup minced celery
¼ cup milk, soy milk, or stock
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 minced garlic clove
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix all the ingredients well. Form into one inch thick patties and place in a lightly oiled skillet. Cook the burgers over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until browned and crispy. Flip the burgers carefully and cook for 5 minutes longer, or until golden brown and a thermometer inserted in the center registers 165° and the meat is no longer pink. Serve the burgers hot. If making a loaf, form into a loaf and pack into a lightly oiled 8 – 4 baking pan. Bake for approximately 45 minute, or until the loaf begins to pull away from the pan.

This recipe makes 4 to 6 burgers or 1 loaf
