VEGAN TURKEY BURGER RECIPES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine first seven ingredients (through cayenne pepper). Add ground turkey; mix well. Shape mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties.
• Coat a grill pan with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Add patties; cook 10 to 13 minutes or until no longer pink (165°F), turning once.
• Meanwhile, stir together mustard and curry powder.
• Fill buns with burgers and, if desired, lettuce, zucchini, tomato, and mustard mixture.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a medium skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes, and add the diced red pepper and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and the grated carrot and cook, stirring, for another minute or two, until the carrots have softened slightly and the mixture is fragrant. Remove from the heat.
• In a large bowl, mash the ground turkey with a fork. Add about ¾ teaspoon kosher salt if desired, and mix in the barbecue sauce, ketchup, and freshly ground pepper to taste. Add the sautéed vegetables and mix together well. Shape into 6 patties, about ¾-inch thick. Chill for 1 hour if possible to facilitate handling.
• Heat a nonstick griddle or a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat and brush with a small amount of canola oil, or prepare a medium-hot grill. When you can feel the heat when you hold your hand above it, cook the patties for 4 minutes on each side. Serve on whole grain buns, with the condiments of your choice.
