Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey
- 8 ounces (pressed and crumbled) Firm tofu
- 2 cups (finely chopped) Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture by placing it between two plates and weighing it down with a heavy object for 15 minutes. Then crumble it into small pieces using your hands or a fork.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, crumbled tofu, chopped spinach, and gluten-free breadcrumbs.
Add the egg, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Mix thoroughly with clean hands or a spatula until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the patties to the skillet.
Cook each patty for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the patties are browned and cooked through.
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the burgers on gluten-free buns or lettuce wraps and garnish with your favorite toppings, such as avocado slices, tomato, or a dollop of mustard.
