In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix the ingredients until well incorporated.
Divide the turkey mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil.
Cook the turkey patties for about 5 minutes on each side, or until they are fully cooked with an internal temperature of at least 165°F (75°C). Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Crack the eggs into the skillet, cooking them for about 2-3 minutes on one side or to your preference, until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.
While the eggs are cooking, slice the tomato and red onion into thin slices.
Toast the whole wheat hamburger buns lightly in a toaster or skillet until golden brown.
To assemble the burgers, place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted bun, followed by a turkey patty.
Top each patty with a cooked egg, then add slices of tomato and red onion.
Spread 1 teaspoon of mustard on the top half of each bun, and place it on top of the stacked hamburger.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy and satisfying low fat burger with egg!
