My husband and I whipped up these grilled turkey-spinach burgers a few days ago when it was practically spring-like in Dallas. I added every herb growing in our garden along with spinach to make them extra aromatic and healthy.
parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme and oregano
Ingredients (serves 6-8)
- 2 pounds ground turkey breast
- chopped herbs of your choice (1-2 tablespoons of each)
- 1 egg to mix with meat; extra eggs to top
- 1/4 cup chopped spinach
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp ground pepper
- cayenne to taste
Method
Mix an egg into your ground turkey to bind everything together. Add salt, pepper and cayenne.
Mix in chopped herbs. I didn’t really measure but once I chopped everything up I had a little less than a cup.
I meant to add my spinach with the herbs but I forgot so in it goes. I am a big believer in sneaking veggies into ground meat…
John grilled our burgers on his Big Green Egg. He’s does amazing work…
Now for the bonus—add a fried egg on top. I prefer my egg sunny side up, but over easy would be great too. Serve with or without a bun.
Look at all the yumminess.

“Wonder what day God created the egg? How should we know? We should not question. Our stay on earth is not for long. Let us rejoice and believe and give thanks. Eat an egg.”
