Meat & Veggie Burgers

3/21/2023

We’re always looking for more ways to sneak veggies into our diet… and this recipe gets the job done!

You can use your choice of ground meat: turkey, chicken, beef, bison, etc.
Picture
(serves 4 to 6)
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1 small zucchini, grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • Sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 lb (455 g) ground turkey or beef
  • 2 Tbsp grated parmesan (optional)

Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, zucchini, garlic, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until they start to soften. Add the parsley, and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the parsley wilts. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.

In a large bowl, combine the ground meat and the veggies (plus the cheese if you are using it). Mix just enough to evenly distribute the veggies. 

Form into 4-6 patties (depending on your serving size). Place the patties in the pan and cook over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on thickness, until it reaches your desired doneness.

Serve with a salad and/or your favorite whole-grain bun.
